thp: enable direct defrag

Browse source

With memory compaction in, and lumpy-reclaim disabled, it seems safe
enough to defrag memory during the (synchronous) transparent hugepage page
faults (TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_DEFRAG_FLAG) and not only during khugepaged
(async) hugepage allocations that was already enabled even before memory
compaction was in (TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_DEFRAG_KHUGEPAGED_FLAG).
