Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Report the MMU pagesize in /proc/pid/smaps

The KernelPageSize entry in /proc/pid/smaps is the pagesize used by the
kernel to back a VMA. This matches the size used by the MMU in the majority
of cases. However, one counter-example occurs on PPC64 kernels whereby
a kernel using 64K as a base pagesize may still use 4K pages for the MMU
on older processor. To distinguish, this patch reports MMUPageSize as the
pagesize used by the MMU in /proc/pid/smaps.
