Suren has been testing 64KB THP on Android and seeing regressions
under memory pressure (a significant portion of client devices are
always under memory pressure). Hopefully this series will help.
I threw this series into some stress tests we have with both 64KB and
2MB THP enabled and didn't see any obvious problems.

And THP <2MB would need this feature (spell it out).

Thanks for the data! Based on the above:
Test case default MGLRU Change
=============================================================
mmap-xread-seq-mt/vm-scalability 14975716 15567998 +4%
mmap-pread-seq/vm-scalability 11957423 12812682 +7%
mmap-pread-seq-mt/vm-scalability 11771926 unavail N/A
lru-file-readtwice/vm-scalability 9016077 10408804 +15%
lru-file-mmap-read/vm-scalability 8127192 7308375 -10%
So it seems that MGLRU regressed for the last test. I'll find someone
on our team to take a look.
