Originally, the file pages collapse was intended for tmpfs/shmem to merge into THP in the background. However, now not only tmpfs/shmem can support large folios, but some other file systems (such as XFS, erofs ...) also support large folios. Therefore, it is time to decouple the support of file folios collapse from SHMEM.

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.
