[PATCH] /proc/meminfo alterations for hugetlbpages
The patch from Rohit and David M-T changes the hugetlb page info in /proc/meminfo slightly. It makes the identifiers a little clearer while ensuring that we don't add any identifiers which have whitespace. glibc is/shall be parsing this information to determine the size and alignment requirements of the hugetlb pages. This basically means that procfs is a requirement for successful hugetlb page usage. Not very nice, but I suspect real-world userspace fails without procfs anyway.
