Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon 89bbfb6bfb Documentation/vm: use better value for MAP_HUGETLB
documentation: slightly more correct value for MAP_HUGETLB in map_hugetlb.c

still not correct for alpha, mips, parisc or xtensa but working out of
the box in the most common architectures without having to deal with
complicated macros or including architecture specific headers.

/*
* Example of using hugepage memory in a user application using the mmap
* system call with MAP_HUGETLB flag. Before running this program make
* sure the administrator has allocated enough default sized huge pages
* to cover the 256 MB allocation.
*
* For ia64 architecture, Linux kernel reserves Region number 4 for hugepages.
* That means the addresses starting with 0x800000... will need to be
* specified. Specifying a fixed address is not required on ppc64, i386
* or x86_64.
