Please document the function? Had you done this, I might have been
able to work out why the function bales out on the first used hugepage
size, but I can't :(

This could have used for_each_hstate(), had that macro been better
designed (or updated).

Upon return this function coerces an unsigned long long into an "int".
We decided last week that more than 2^32 hugepages was not
inconceivable, so I guess that's a bug.
