[PATCH -next] futex: fix futex_hashsize initialization

[Heiko Carstens]

"futexes: Increase hash table size for better performance" introduces a new
alloc_large_system_hash() call. alloc_large_system_hash() however may allocate
less memory than requested, e.g. limited by MAX_ORDER.

Hence pass a pointer to alloc_large_system_hash() which will contain the hash
shift when the function returns. Afterwards correctly set futex_hashsize.

Fixes a crash on s390 where the requested allocation size was 4MB but only 1MB
was allocated.
