Fallback rates surpassing 90% have been observed on phones utilizing 64KiB
CONT-PTE mTHP. In these scenarios, when one out of every 16 PTEs fails to
allocate large folios, the remaining 15 PTEs fallback. Consequently,
invoking vma_thp_gfp_mask seems redundant in such cases. Furthermore,
abstaining from its use can also contribute to improved code readability.
