Subject: hugetlb: allow arch overried hugepage allocation
From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>
Allow alloc_bootmem_huge_page() to be overridden by architectures that
can't always use bootmem. This requires huge_boot_pages to be available
for use by this function.
This is required for powerpc 16G pages, which have to be reserved prior to
boot-time. The location of these pages are indicated in the device tree.
