From: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>
Subject: mm: remove READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS Kconfig option
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 22:49:08 -0400

After removing READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS check in file_thp_enabled(),
khugepaged and MADV_COLLAPSE can run on FSes with PMD THP pagecache
support even without READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS enabled.  Remove the Kconfig
first so that no one can use READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS as upcoming commits
remove mapping->nr_thps, which its safe guard mechanism relies on.
