From: Dominik Dingel <dingel at linux.vnet.ibm.com>
commit 7f9be77555bb2e52de84e9dddf7b4eb20cc6e171 upstream.
On s390 we only can enable hugepages if the underlying hardware/hypervisor
also does support this. Common code now would assume this to be
signaled by setting HPAGE_SHIFT to 0. But on s390, where we only
support one hugepage size, there is a link between HPAGE_SHIFT and
pageblock_order.
So instead of setting HPAGE_SHIFT to 0, we will implement the check for
the hardware capability.
