Subject: mm: Documentation: clarify where the mTHP stats live
Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2026 13:25:05 -0600

The note about khugepaged counters references /proc/vmstat for the PMD
case, but never mentions where the mTHPs stats can be found (i.e.:
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>kB/stats/) Add a small
addition to this section for clarity.

Also fix a missing period while we are at it.
