There are interfaces to adjust max_ptes_none, max_ptes_swap, max_ptes_shared values, see /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/. But system administrator may not know which value is the best. So Add those events to support adjusting max_ptes_* to suitable values. For example, if default max_ptes_swap value causes too much failures, and system uses zram whose IO is fast, administrator could increase max_ptes_swap until THP_SCAN_EXCEED_SWAP_PTE not increase anymore.

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 Restructured Text 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.
