mm: report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smaps

Browse Source 
The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA.  This matches the size used by the MMU in the
majority of cases.  However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels
whereby a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for
the MMU on older processor.  To distinguish, this patch reports
MMUPageSize as the pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.
