powerpc: Fix size check for hugetlbfs
My "slices" address space management code that was added in 2.6.22
implementation of get_unmapped_area() doesn't properly check that the
size is a multiple of the requested page size. This allows userland to
create VMAs that aren't a multiple of the huge page size with hugetlbfs
(since hugetlbfs entirely relies on get_unmapped_area() to do that
checking) which leads to a kernel BUG() when such areas are torn down.
