hugetlbfs: per mount huge page sizes

Browse Source 
Add the ability to configure the hugetlb hstate used on a per mount basis.

- Add a new pagesize= option to the hugetlbfs mount that allows setting
  the page size
- This option causes the mount code to find the hstate corresponding to the
  specified size, and sets up a pointer to the hstate in the mount's
  superblock.
- Change the hstate accessors to use this information rather than the
  global_hstate they were using (requires a slight change in mm/memory.c
  so we don't NULL deref in the error-unmap path -- see comments).

[np: take hstate out of hugetlbfs inode and vma->vm_private_data]
