The patchset adds khugepaged selftest (anon-THP only for now), expands
cases khugepaged can handle and switches anon-THP copy-on-write handling
to 4k.

Please review and consider applying.

v3:
 - Fix handling compound pages in swap cache;
 - Rework swaped vs. referenced check;
 - Fix refcounting for compound pages;
 - Drop Reviewed-by/Acked-by as patchset changed non-trivially;
 - Typos;
v2:
 - Fix race in compound page handling;
 - Add one more test-case for compound page case;
 - Rework LRU add cache draining;
 - Typos;

Kirill A. Shutemov (8):
  khugepaged: Add self test
  khugepaged: Do not stop collapse if less than half PTEs are referenced
  khugepaged: Drain all LRU caches before scanning pages
  khugepaged: Drain LRU add pagevec after swapin
  khugepaged: Allow to collapse a page shared across fork
  khugepaged: Allow to collapse PTE-mapped compound pages
  thp: Change CoW semantics for anon-THP
  khugepaged: Introduce 'max_ptes_shared' tunable
