Subject: mm: remove READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS Kconfig option
X-Git-Tag: v7.2-rc1~59^2~93
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4df0f37bd95bff5eb64e2a28eba378d64f4c01e;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

mm: remove READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS Kconfig option

After removing READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check in file_thp_enabled(),
khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE can run on FSes with PMD THP pagecache
support even without READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS enabled.  Remove the Kconfig
first so that no one can use READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS as upcoming commits
remove mapping->nr_thps, which its safe guard mechanism relies on.
