mm: thp: pass correct vm_flags to hugepage_vma_check()
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() passes a stale vma->vm_flags to
hugepage_vma_check(). The argument vm_flags contains the latest value.
Therefore, it is necessary to pass this vm_flags into
hugepage_vma_check().
With this bug, madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) for mmap files in shmem fails to
put memory in huge pages. Here is an example of failed madvise():
/* mount /dev/shm with huge=advise:
* mount -o remount,huge=advise /dev/shm */
/* create file /dev/shm/huge */
#define HUGE_FILE "/dev/shm/huge"
fd = open(HUGE_FILE, O_RDONLY);
ptr = mmap(NULL, FILE_SIZE, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE, fd, 0);
ret = madvise(ptr, FILE_SIZE, MADV_HUGEPAGE);
madvise() will return 0, but this memory region is never put in huge
page (check from /proc/meminfo: ShmemHugePages).
