From: Nick Piggin Allow alloc_bootmem_huge_page() to be overridden by architectures that can't always use bootmem. This requires huge_boot_pages to be available for use by this function. This is required for powerpc 16G pages, which have to be reserved prior to boot-time. The location of these pages are indicated in the device tree.
