mm/mmap: teach generic_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle hugetlb …

Patch series "Unify hugetlb into arch_get_unmapped_area functions", v4.

This is an attempt to get rid of a fair amount of duplicated code wrt. 
hugetlb and *get_unmapped_area* functions.

HugeTLB registers a .get_unmapped_area function which gets called from
__get_unmapped_area().
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() is defined by a bunch of architectures and
it also has a generic definition for those that do not define it.
Short-long story is that there is a ton of duplicated code between
specific hugetlb *_get_unmapped_area_* functions and mm-core functions,
so we can do better by teaching arch_get_unmapped_area* functions how
to deal with hugetlb mappings.

Note that not a lot of things need to be taught though. 
hugetlb_get_unmapped_area, that gets called for hugetlb mappings, runs
some sanity checks prior to calling mm_get_unmapped_area_vmflags(), so we
do not need to that down the road in the respective
{generic,arch}_get_unmapped_area* functions.

More information can be found in the respective patches.

LTP mmapstress hugetlb selftests were ran succesfully on:


This patch (of 9):

We want to stop special casing hugetlb mappings and make them go through
generic channels, so teach generic_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle
those.  The main difference is that we set info.align_mask for huge
mappings.
