+ * Several system calls take a flag to request "hugetlb" huge pages.
+ * Without further specification, these system calls will use the
+ * system's default huge page size. If a system supports multiple
+ * huge page sizes, the desired huge page size can be specified in
+ * bits [26:31] of the flag arguments. The value in these 6 bits
+ * will encode the log2 of the huge page size.
+ *
+ * The following definitions are associated with this huge page size
+ * encoding in flag arguments. System call specific header files
+ * that use this encoding should include this file. They can then
+ * provide definitions based on these with their own specific prefix.
+ * for example:
+ * #define MAP_HUGE_SHIFT HUGETLB_FLAG_ENCODE_SHIFT
