hugetlbfs: fix alignment of huge page requests
When calling shmget() with SHM_HUGETLB, shmget aligns the request size to PAGE_SIZE, but this is not sufficient. Modify hugetlb_file_setup() to align requests to the huge page size, and to accept an address argument so that all alignment checks can be performed in hugetlb_file_setup(), rather than in its callers. Change newseg() and mmap_pgoff() to match the new prototype and eliminate a now redundant alignment check.
