This just adds user space exported ABI definitions for 2MB, 16MB, 1GB, 16GB non default huge page sizes to be used with mmap() system call.
Signed-off-by: Anshuman Khandual <khand...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> --- These defined values will be used along with MAP_HUGETLB while calling mmap() system call if the desired HugeTLB page size is not the default one.
