Hugetlbfs mapping should be recognized as anon mapping so user has
a chance to create /tmp/perf-<pid>.map file for symbol resolving. This
patch utilizes MAP_HUGETLB to identify hugetlb mapping.

After this patch, if perf is started before the program starts using
huge pages (so perf gets MMAP2 events from kernel), perf is able to
recognize hugetlb mapping as anon mapping.
Fixing build on older distros (Centos5, Ubuntu 12.04.5, etc)


CC /tmp/build/perf/arch/x86/util/perf_regs.o
util/event.c: In function 'perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events':
util/event.c:350: error: 'MAP_HUGETLB' undeclared (first use in this function)
util/event.c:350: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
util/event.c:350: error: for each function it appears in.)


Fixing MAP_HUGETLB is not as easy as it seems to be. Its value
is different in each arch:

./arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x40000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/alpha/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x100000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/xtensa/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x80000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/tile/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x4000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/parisc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x80000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/sparc/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x40000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x80000 /* create a huge page mapping */
./include/uapi/asm-generic/mman.h:#define MAP_HUGETLB 0x40000 /* create a huge page mapping */

So we need to introduce another header into tools for this macro. Sigh...

Thank you.
