Couple of reasons:
- It can lead to security issues (see row-hammer, KSM and such
attacks).
- Code is quite complex.
- Deduplication is good if the pages themselves are the same
but that is hardly guaranteed.
- We got some gains (if pages are deduped) but at the cost of
making code less maintainable.
- tze depends on deduplication code.
As such, deleting it.
