This patch introduces new sysfs integer knob
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_swap
which makes optimistic check for swapin readahead to
increase thp collapse rate. Before getting swapped
out pages to memory, checks them and allows up to a
certain number. It also prints out using tracepoints
amount of unmapped ptes.
We we please get this control documented? 
Documentation/vm/transhuge.txt appears to be the place for it.
I will add annotation about max_swap_ptes to doc and send it with new patch.

Kind regards,
Ebru
