Zhang, Yanmin 8f860591ff [PATCH] Enable mprotect on huge pages 
2.6.16-rc3 uses hugetlb on-demand paging, but it doesn_t support hugetlb
mprotect.

From: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

  Remove a test from the mprotect() path which checks that the mprotect()ed
  range on a hugepage VMA is hugepage aligned (yes, really, the sense of
  is_aligned_hugepage_range() is the opposite of what you'd guess :-/).

  In fact, we don't need this test.  If the given addresses match the
  beginning/end of a hugepage VMA they must already be suitably aligned.  If
  they don't, then mprotect_fixup() will attempt to split the VMA.  The very
  first test in split_vma() will check for a badly aligned address on a
  hugepage VMA and return -EINVAL if necessary.

From: "Chen, Kenneth W" <kenneth.w.chen@intel.com>

  On i386 and x86-64, pte flag _PAGE_PSE collides with _PAGE_PROTNONE.  The
  identify of hugetlb pte is lost when changing page protection via mprotect.
  A page fault occurs later will trigger a bug check in huge_pte_alloc().

  The fix is to always make new pte a hugetlb pte and also to clean up
  legacy code where _PAGE_PRESENT is forced on in the pre-faulting day.
