In commit 246d3aa3e5 ("mm: cleanup count_mthp_stat() definition"), Ryan
Roberts has pointed out the merits of mm code that does not require THP,
to be compile-able without requiring THP ifdefs. As a step in that
direction, he has moved count_mthp_stat() to be always defined, resolving
to a no-op if THP is not defined.
Barry Song referred me to Ryan's commit when I was working on the "mm:
zswap swap-out of large folios" patch-series [1].
This patch propagates the benefits of the above change to page_io.c and
vmscan.c. As a result, there is one less reason to have the ifdef THP in
these code sections.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
