check_huge_shmem() was required to distinguish shmem huge pages because
/proc/self/smaps reports them using a dedicated “ShmemPmdMapped” entry,
as opposed to “FilePmdMapped” for file-backed huge pages.

Now that /proc/self/smaps is no longer used to detect huge pages and
/proc/kpageflags is used instead, it is sufficient to distinguish
between file-backed and anonymous pages since the ShmemPmdMapped is also
kind of file-backed.

Therefore, remove check_huge_shmem() and use check_huge_file() instead
and cleanup khugepaged's check_huge operation in mem_ops.
