Hi, Shivank

The change here looks good, while I come up with an question.

The @progress here seems record two things:

  * number of pages scaned
  * number of vma skipped

While in very rare case, we may miss to count the second case.

For example, we have following vmas in a process:

     vma1             vma2
    +----------------+------------+
    |2M              |1M          |
    +----------------+------------+

Let's assume vma1 is exactly HPAGE_PMD_SIZE and also HPAGE_PMD_SIZE aligned.
But vma2 is only half of HPAGE_PMD_SIZE.

When scan finish vma1 and start on vma2, we would have hstart = hend =
address. So we continue here but would not do real scan, since address == hend.

I am thinking whether this could handle it:

                if (khugepaged_scan.address > hend || hend <= hstart) {
                        progress++;
                        continue;
                }

Do you thinks I am correct on this?
