mm/thp: fix "mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()"

Browse Source 
The 6.0 commits:

commit 9fec51689f ("mm: thp: kill transparent_hugepage_active()")
commit 7da4e2cb8b ("mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()")

merged "can we have THPs in this VMA?" logic that was previously done
separately by fault-path, khugepaged, and smaps "THPeligible" checks.

During the process, the semantics of the fault path check changed in two
ways:

1) A VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED check was introduced (also added to smaps path).
2) We no longer checked if non-anonymous memory had a vm_ops->huge_fault
   handler that could satisfy the fault.  Previously, this check had been
   done in create_huge_pud() and create_huge_pmd() routines, but after
   the changes, we never reach those routines.

During the review of the above commits, it was determined that in-tree
users weren't affected by the change; most notably, since the only
relevant user (in terms of THP) of VM_MIXEDMAP or ->huge_fault is DAX,
which is explicitly approved early in approval logic.  However, this was a
bad assumption to make as it assumes the only reason to support
->huge_fault was for DAX (which is not true in general).

Remove the VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED check when not in collapse path and give any
->huge_fault handler a chance to handle the fault.  Note that we don't
validate the file mode or mapping alignment, which is consistent with the
behavior before the aforementioned commits.
