rfc -> v1: Fix s390 compilation errors
Tested on s390
v1 -> v2: Rebased on top of mm-unstable
Fix sparc64 compilation errors
v2 -> v3: Rebased on top of mm-unstable
Fix bug reported by Lorenzo Stoakes


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:

- arm64
- powerpc64
- s390
- x86_64

Oscar Salvador (9):
mm/mmap: Teach generic_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle hugetlb
mappings
arch/s390: Teach arch_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle hugetlb
mappings
arch/x86: Teach arch_get_unmapped_area_vmflags to handle hugetlb
mappings
arch/sparc: Teach arch_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to handle hugetlb
mappings
arch/powerpc: Teach book3s64 arch_get_unmapped_area{_topdown} to
handle hugetlb mappings
mm: Make hugetlb mappings go through mm_get_unmapped_area_vmflags
mm: Drop hugetlb_get_unmapped_area{_*} functions
arch/s390: Clean up hugetlb definitions
mm: Consolidate common checks in hugetlb_get_unmapped_area
