Subject[PATCH 4/6] pagemap: document KPF_THP and make page-types aware of it
Date
page-types, which is a common user of pagemap, gets aware of thp
with this patch. This helps system admins and kernel hackers know
about how thp works.
Here is a sample output of page-types over a thp:

$ page-types -p <pid> --raw --list
