[PATCH] hugetlb fix
Patch from Rohit Seth It fixes the problem which Andrea noted in his initial review of the hugetlb code: "In short doing "addr = vma->vm_end" and then checking if vm_end + len is below vm_next->vm_start is broken, because there's no guarantee that "addr" will be a largepage aligned address. the LPAGE_ALIGN in found_addr should be dropped becaue moving the addr ahead without checking that addr+len doesn't then fall into a vma, will generate do_munmaps and in turn userspace mem corruption."
