May be we could call it mapsize. pagesize is confusing.

We may want to force using the PTE mappings when logging_active (e.g, migration
?) to prevent keep tracking of huge pages. So the check is still valid.

I think this is relevant here than in thp_adjust, unless we rename
the function below to something generic, handle_hugepage_adjust().

That makes sense.

I think this is what we do currently. So I assume this is fine.
