Let's wire up existing madvise() hugepage hints for file mappings. MADV_HUGEPAGE advise shmem to allocate huge page on page fault in the VMA. It only has effect if the filesystem is mounted with huge=advise or huge=within_size.
MADV_NOHUGEPAGE prevents hugepage from being allocated on page fault in the VMA. It doesn't prevent a huge page from being allocated by other means, i.e. page fault into different mapping or write(2) into file. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
