Subject: [PATCH 0/2] mm/hugetlb: Fix commandline parsing behavior for invalid hugepagesize

Current code fails to ignore the 'hugepages=' parameters when unsupported
hugepagesize is specified. With this patchset, introduce new architecture
independent routine hugetlb_bad_size to handle such command line options. And
then call it in architecture specific code.

Vaishali Thakkar (2):
  mm/hugetlb: Introduce hugetlb_bad_size
  arch:mm: Use hugetlb_bad_size
