mm/thp: add flag to enforce sysfs THP in hugepage_vma_check()



MADV_COLLAPSE is not coupled to the kernel-oriented sysfs THP settings[1].

hugepage_vma_check() is the authority on determining if a VMA is eligible
for THP allocation/collapse, and currently enforces the sysfs THP
settings.  Add a flag to disable these checks.  For now, only apply this
arg to anon and file, which use /sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/enabled. 
We can expand this to shmem, which uses
/sys/kernel/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled, later.

Use this flag in collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where previously the VMA flags
passed to hugepage_vma_check() were OR'd with VM_HUGEPAGE to elide the
VM_HUGEPAGE check in "madvise" THP mode.  Prior to "mm: khugepaged: check
THP flag in hugepage_vma_check()", this check also didn't check "never"
THP mode.  As such, this restores the previous behavior of
collapse_pte_mapped_thp() where sysfs THP settings are ignored.  See
comment in code for justification why this is OK.
