There are mainly two reasons that thp_get_unmapped_area() should be
used for EROFS as other filesystems:
- It's needed to enable PMD mappings as a FSDAX filesystem, see
commit 74d2fad1334d ("thp, dax: add thp_get_unmapped_area for pmd
mappings");
- It's useful together with CONFIG_READ_ONLY_THP_FOR_FS which enables
THPs for read-only mmapped files (e.g. shared libraries) even without
FSDAX. See commit 1854bc6e2420 ("mm/readahead: Align file mappings
for non-DAX").
