hugetlbfs: add arch_hugetlb_valid_size

Patch series "Clean up hugetlb boot command line processing", v4.

Longpeng(Mike) reported a weird message from hugetlb command line
processing and proposed a solution [1].  While the proposed patch does
address the specific issue, there are other related issues in command line
processing.  As hugetlbfs evolved, updates to command line processing have
been made to meet immediate needs and not necessarily in a coordinated
manner.  The result is that some processing is done in arch specific code,
some is done in arch independent code and coordination is problematic.
Semantics can vary between architectures.

The patch series does the following:
- Define arch specific arch_hugetlb_valid_size routine used to validate
  passed huge page sizes.
- Move hugepagesz= command line parsing out of arch specific code and into
  an arch independent routine.
- Clean up command line processing to follow desired semantics and
  document those semantics.

This patch (of 3):

The architecture independent routine hugetlb_default_setup sets up the
default huge pages size.  It has no way to verify if the passed value is
valid, so it accepts it and attempts to validate at a later time.  This
requires undocumented cooperation between the arch specific and arch
independent code.

For architectures that support more than one huge page size, provide a
routine arch_hugetlb_valid_size to validate a huge page size.
hugetlb_default_setup can use this to validate passed values.

arch_hugetlb_valid_size will also be used in a subsequent patch to move
processing of the "hugepagesz=" in arch specific code to a common routine
in arch independent code.
