KPF_THP can be set on non-huge compound pages like slab pages, because PageTransCompound only sees PG_head and PG_tail. Obviously this is a bug and breaks user space applications which look for thp via /proc/kpageflags. This patch rules out setting KPF_THP wrongly by additional PageSlab check. Changelog in v3: - check PageSlab instead of PageAnon - fix patch subject Changelog in v2: - add a comment in code Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <redacted>
