mm/Kconfig:

config READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS
        bool "Read-only THP for filesystems (EXPERIMENTAL)"
        depends on TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE && SHMEM

        help
          Allow khugepaged to put read-only file-backed pages in THP.

          This is marked experimental because it is a new feature. Write
          support of file THPs will be developed in the next few release
          cycles.

are we looking at the same option?
Besides, do you have any number to back this change?
