Because the default for pte_none resp. zero pages collapsing into THP is
khugepaged_max_ptes_none and the current default means that a single
present page is sufficient. That is way too optimistic. So I consider
this to be a good start. I am not so sure about minimum young pages
because that would probably require yet another tunable and we have more
than enough of them. Anyway I guess we are getting off-topic here...
