[PATCH 1/2] mm: add per-order mTHP split counters
At present, the split counters in THP statistics no longer include
PTE-mapped mTHP. Therefore, this commit introduces per-order mTHP split
counters to monitor the frequency of mTHP splits. This will assist
developers in better analyzing and optimizing system performance.

There is a very long conversation with Barry about adding a 'global "mTHP became
partially mapped 1 or more processes" counter (inc only)', which terminates at
[1]. There is a lot of discussion about the required semantics around the need
for partial map to cover alignment and contiguity as well as whether all pages
are mapped, and to trigger once it becomes partial in at least 1 process.

MTHP_STAT_DEFERRED_SPLIT_PAGE is giving much simpler semantics, but less
information as a result. Barry, what's your view here? I'm guessing this doesn't
quite solve what you are looking for?

My opinion can be ignored :). Would it be better to modify the
deferred_split_folio
function as follows? I'm not sure.

The deferred_split_page counter may easily go insane with the fix from
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20240411153232.169560-1-zi.yan@sent.com/

Zi Yan,

Will you submit v2 for this patch soon?
