Following this email, I'm sending CVE-2016-3961 fix backport for Precise, taken
from upstream 3.2 stable kernel. The actual fix is commit 103f6112f253
("x86/mm/xen: Suppress hugetlbfs in PV guests"), but in Precise a few other
commits are required.
Note that commit 7f9be77555bb ("s390/hugetlb: add hugepages_supported define")
is included here for completeness as this platform is actually not supported in
Precise.

mm: hugetlb: allow hugepages_supported to be architecture specific
s390/hugetlb: add hugepages_supported define

hugetlb: ensure hugepage access is denied if hugepages are not
supported
