memfd: add hugetlb support
Linux commit 749df87bd7bee5a79cef073f5d032ddb2b211de8 (v4.14-rc1) added a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that specify the file to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem. This is the generic hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point. hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations in v4.14, therefore specifying MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL. However, I added sealing support in "[PATCH v3 0/9] memfd: add sealing to hugetlb-backed memory" series, queued in -mm tree for v4.16.
