Currently, when shmem mTHPs are split and swapped out via
shmem_writeout(), there are no unified statistics to trace these mTHP
swpout fallback events.  This makes it difficult to analyze the prevalence
of mTHP splitting and fallback during swap operations, which is important
for memory diagnostics.

Here we add statistics counting for mTHP fallback to small pages when
splitting and swapping out in shmem_writeout().
