This patch enables support of hugepages in a pv Xen environment.  It is 
against the latest linux-2.6.18-xen tree on http://xenbits.xensource.com.

The patch assumes the guest memory was contiguously allocated on a 
hugepage-aligned boundary.  Future versions of the patch may include checking 
the hugepage pool and removing hugepages that are not properly aligned.
