Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)

We did not have a direct user interface of splitting the compound page backing a THP and there is no need unless we want to expose the THP implementation details to users. Make <debugfs>/split_huge_pages accept a new command to do that. By writing "<pid>,<vaddr_start>,<vaddr_end>" to <debugfs>/split_huge_pages, THPs within the given virtual address range from the process with the given pid are split. It is used to test split_huge_page function. In addition, a selftest program is added to tools/testing/selftests/vm to utilize the interface by splitting PMD THPs and PTE-mapped THPs. This does not change the old behavior, i.e., writing 1 to the interface to split all THPs in the system.

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.
