Let's allow a minimum block size of 1 MiB in all configurations. Select the default block size based on - The page size of the memory backend. - The THP size if the memory backend size corresponds to the real host page size. - The global minimum of 1 MiB. and warn if something smaller is configured by the user. VIRTIO_MEM only supports Linux (depends on LINUX), so we can probe the THP size unconditionally. For now we only support virtio-mem on x86-64 - there isn't a user-visible change (x86-64 only supports 2 MiB THP on the PMD level) - the default was, and will be 2 MiB. If we ever have THP on the PUD level (e.g., 1 GiB THP on x86-64), we expect it to be more transparent - e.g., to only optimize fully populated ranges unless explicitly told /configured otherwise (in contrast to PMD THP).
