mm/thp: fix doc for transparent huge zero page
Transparent huge zero page is used during the page fault instead of in khugepaged. # ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/ defrag enabled khugepaged use_zero_page # ls /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/khugepaged/ alloc_sleep_millisecs defrag full_scans max_ptes_none pages_collapsed pages_to_scan scan_sleep_millisecs This patch corrects the documentation just like the codes done.
