Huge pages and transparent superpages are mostly orthogonal. The
former sometimes can be used as a temporary work-around for the
latter, but superpages won't obsolete huge pages (for those problems
where huge pages are suitable, they can't be beat). This is why huge
pages were accepted into the Linux kernel. Superpage support is being
worked on separately.
