Yep! I was actually working on some selftests for this before I hit a
weird bug during some of my testing, which took precedence over that.

I was planning on sending a separate series for the testing. One of
the pain points was that selftests helpers were set up for PMDs, but I
think Baolin just cleaned that up in his khugepaged mTHP shmem series
(still need to review). So it should be a lot easier to implement now.
