commitc4608d1bf7("mm: mmap: map MAP_STACK to VM_NOHUGEPAGE") maps the mmap option MAP_STACK to VM_NOHUGEPAGE. This is also done if CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is not defined. But in that case, the VM_NOHUGEPAGE does not make sense. I discovered this issue when trying to use the tool CRIU to checkpoint and restore a container. Our running kernel is compiled without CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. CRIU parses the output of /proc/<pid>/smaps and saves the "nh" flag. When trying to restore the container, CRIU fails to restore the "nh" mappings, since madvise() MADV_NOHUGEPAGE always returns an error because CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is not defined.

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.
