/proc/meminfo ShmemHugePages has been showing overlarge amounts (more than Shmem) after swapping out THPs: we forgot to update NR_SHMEM_THPS. Add shmem_update_stats(), to avoid repetition, and risk of making that mistake again: the call from shmem_delete_from_page_cache() is the bugfix; the call from shmem_replace_folio() is reassuring, but not really a bugfix (replace corrects misplaced swapin readahead, but huge swapin readahead would be a mistake).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
