I wonder whether it makes sense to expose to userspace somehow whether
mremap is "fast" for a particular architecture. If a feature relies on
fast mremap, it might be better for some userland component to disable
that feature entirely rather than blindly use mremap and end up
performing very

Well, I didn't want to enable every possible architecture we could in a
single go. Certainly arm32 can be a follow on enablement as can be other
architectures. The point of this series is to upstream this feature

Android needs to mremap large regions of memory during memory management
related operations. The mremap system call can be really slow if THP is
not enabled. The bottleneck is move_page_tables, which is copying each
pte at a time, and can be really slow across a large map. Turning on THP
