Hi all,

Currently, the split counters in THP statistics no longer include
PTE-mapped mTHP. Therefore, we propose introducing per-order mTHP split
counters to monitor the frequency of mTHP splits. This will help developers
better analyze and optimize system performance.

/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats
        split
        split_failed
        split_deferred

---
