22f3c95186 khugepaged: selftests: remove debug_cow
The debug_cow attribute had been removed since commit 4958e4d86ecb01 ("mm:
thp: remove debug_cow switch"), so remove it in selftest code too,
otherwise the khugepaged test will fail.

9f267a17bf khugepaged: selftests: fix timeout condition in wait_for_scan()
The loop exits with "timeout" set to -1 and not to 0 so the test needs to
be fixed.

71a2c112a0 khugepaged: introduce 'max_ptes_shared' tunable
'max_ptes_shared' specifies how many pages can be shared across multiple
processes.  Exceeding the number would block the collapse::

	/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/max_ptes_shared

A higher value may increase memory footprint for some workloads.

By default, at least half of pages has to be not shared.

e0c13f9761 khugepaged: add self test
Patch series "thp/khugepaged improvements and CoW semantics", v4.

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.

This patch (of 8):

The test checks if khugepaged is able to recover huge page where we expect
to do so.  It only covers anon-THP for now.

Currently the test shows few failures.  They are going to be addressed by
the following patches.
