[PATCH] mm: allow checking length for hugetlb mapping in mmap()

[Li Xinhai <lixinhai.lxh@gmail.com>]

In current code, the vma related call of hugetlb mapping, except mmap,
are all consider not correctly aligned length as invalid parameter,
including mprotect,munmap, mlock, etc., by checking through
hugetlb_vm_op_split. So, user will see failure, after successfully call
mmap, although using same length parameter to other mapping syscall.

It is desirable for all hugetlb mapping calls have consistent behavior,
without mmap as exception(which round up length to align underlying
hugepage size). In current Documentation/admin-guide/mm/hugetlbpage.rst,
the description is:
"
Syscalls that operate on memory backed by hugetlb pages only have their
lengths aligned to the native page size of the processor; they will
normally fail with errno set to EINVAL or exclude hugetlb pages that
extend beyond the length if not hugepage aligned. For example, munmap(2)
will fail if memory is backed by a hugetlb page and the length is smaller
than the hugepage size.
"
which express the consistent behavior.
