[PATCH 02/10] kvm tools, powerpc: Use mmap_anon_or_hugetblfs() in kvm__arch_init()

[Michael Ellerman]

It implements essentially the same logic. The one difference is it sets
MAP_NORESERVE when using anonymous mmap, but I think that is OK.

Reword the comment about hugetblfs, we are no longer required to use
hugepages to back the guest.
