seven valid policies for shmem (``always``, ``within_size``, ``advise``,

+Similarly to ``transparent_hugepage_shmem``, you can control the default
+hugepage allocation policy for the tmpfs mount by using the kernel parameter
+``transparent_hugepage_tmpfs=<policy>``, where ``<policy>`` is one of the
+four valid policies for tmpfs (``always``, ``within_size``, ``advise``,

In the same manner as ``thp_anon`` controls each supported anonymous THP
size, ``thp_shmem`` controls each supported shmem THP size. ``thp_shmem``
has the same format as ``thp_anon``, but also supports the policy
