SPARC Linux has an oddity that it insists that mmap()
of MAP_FIXED memory must be at an alignment defined by
SHMLBA, which is more aligned than the page size
(typically, SHMLBA alignment is to 16K, and pages are 8K).
This is a relic of ancient hardware that had cache
aliasing constraints, but even on modern hardware the
kernel still insists on the alignment.
To ensure that we get mmap() alignment sufficient to
make the kernel happy, change QEMU_VMALLOC_ALIGN,
qemu_fd_getpagesize() and qemu_mempath_getpagesize()
to use the maximum of getpagesize() and SHMLBA.
In particular, this allows 'make check' to pass on Sparc:
we were previously failing the ivshmem tests.

getrampagesize() returns the largest supported page size and mainly
used to know if huge pages are enabled.
However is implemented in target-ppc/kvm.c and not available
in TCG or other architectures.
This renames and moves gethugepagesize() to mmap-alloc.c where
fd-based analog of it is already implemented. This renames and moves
getrampagesize() to exec.c as it seems to be the common place for
helpers like this.

1st mmap returns *ptr* which aligns to host page size,
| size + align |
------------------------------------------
ptr
input param *align* could be 1M, or 2M, or host page size. After
QEMU_ALIGN_UP, offset will >= 0
2nd mmap use flag MAP_FIXED, then it return ptr+offset, or else fail.
If it success, then we will have something like:
| offset | size |
--------------------------------------
ptr ptr1
*ptr1* is what we really want to return, it equals ptr+offset.

Tracked down with an ugly, brittle and probably buggy Perl script.
Also move includes converted to <...> up so they get included before
ours where that's obviously okay.

qemu/osdep.h checks whether MAP_ANONYMOUS is defined, but this check
is bogus without a previous inclusion of sys/mman.h. Include it in

The comment I put in mmap-alloc to document the ppc64 rules
refers to the previous revision of the patch:
we don't look at memory alignment anymore, we check
the fs from which the fd is mapped, instead.
It's also not clear what does "in this case" refer
to, rearrange text to make it clearer.

Since commit 8561c9244d "exec: allocate PROT_NONE pages on top of
RAM", it is no longer possible to back guest RAM with hugepages on ppc64
hosts:
mmap(NULL, 285212672, PROT_NONE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0x3fff57000000
mmap(0x3fff57000000, 268435456, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_FIXED, 19, 0) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
This is because on ppc64, Linux fixes a page size for a virtual address
at mmap time, so we can't switch a range of memory from anonymous
small pages to hugetlbs with MAP_FIXED.
See commit d0f13e3c20b6fb73ccb467bdca97fa7cf5a574cd
("[POWERPC] Introduce address space "slices"") in Linux
history for the details.
Detect this and create the PROT_NONE mapping using the same fd.
Naturally, this makes the guard page bigger with hugetlbfs.
