How's about the 3rd option, adding THP_FILE_FALLBACK.

According to the past discussion with Hugh and Kirill, basically
shmem/file THP is treated differently and separately from anonymous
THP, and they have separate enabling knobs
(/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled just enables anonymous
THP). Since we already have THP_FILE_ALLOC for shmem THP allocation,
IMHO it makes more sense to have dedicated FALLBACK counter. And, this
won't change the old behavior either.
