Subject: mm/khugepaged: introduce collapse_allowable_orders helper function
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 09:00:05 -0600

Add collapse_allowable_orders() to generalize THP order eligibility.  The
function determines which THP orders are permitted based on collapse
context (khugepaged vs madv_collapse).

This consolidates collapse configuration logic and provides a clean
interface for future mTHP collapse support where the orders may be
different.
