systems. When this feature is enabled, the kernel tries to map
anonymous pages as 2MB sections where possible.

This patch adds support for hugetlbfs based on the x86 implementation.
It allows mapping of 2MB sections (see Documentation/vm/hugetlbpage.txt
for usage). The 64K pages configuration is not supported (section size
is 512MB in this case).

The DFSR and IFSR register format is different when LPAE is enabled. In
addition, DFSR and IFSR have similar definitions for the fault type.
This modifies the fault code to correctly handle the new format.
