SubjectRe: [PATCH] mm,hugetlb: compute page_size_log properly

Well, let's see what it looks like to do that. I went down the rabbit
hole trying to understand why some of the SHM_ flags had the same value
as each other until I realised some of them were internal flags, some
were flags to shmat() and others were flags to shmget(). Hopefully I
disambiguated them nicely in this patch. I also added 8MB and 16GB sizes.
Any more architectures with a pet favourite huge/giant page size we
should add convenience defines for?
