hugetlb: override default huge page size

Allow configurations with the default huge page size which is different to
the traditional HPAGE_SIZE size.  The default huge page size is the one
represented in the legacy /proc ABIs, SHM, and which is defaulted to when
mounting hugetlbfs filesystems.

This is implemented with a new kernel option default_hugepagesz=, which
defaults to HPAGE_SIZE if not specified.
