Subject: [PATCH 2/3]HTLB mapping for drivers. Hstate for files with hugetlb
 mapping(take 2)

This patch slightly modifies the procedure for getting hstate from inode.
If inode correspond to hugetlbfs - the hugetlbfs hstate will be returned, otherwise 
hstate of vfs mount. We need this since we can have files with hugetlb mapping which are 
not part of hugetlbfs.

Also this patch contains a function which reports hstate related to vfsmount as information
about huge page size is much important for drivers.

Signed-off-by: Alexey Korolev <akorolev@...radead.org>
