use getpagesize()
getpagesize() is said to be more portable than
sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) to anything Linux.
this patch helps klibc porting effort as the sysconf multiplex
API is not supported there.
if you *really* want to port util-linux-ng to any other OS you need
to add a fallback for getpagesize() to lib/.
Note that portability to non-Linux system is not our primary goal.
