mm/khugepaged: change collapse_pte_mapped_thp() to return void
The only external caller of collapse_pte_mapped_thp() is uprobe, which ignores the return value. Change the external API to return void to simplify the interface. Introduce try_collapse_pte_mapped_thp() for internal use that preserves the return value. This prepares for future patch that will convert the return type to use enum scan_result.
