Now that we have 3 mmap flags shared by all architectures,
let's move them into the common header.
This will help discourage future architectures from duplicating code.

ARM64 architecture also supports 32MB and 512MB HugeTLB page sizes. This
just adds mmap() system call argument encoding for them.

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

A non-default huge page size can be encoded in the flags argument of the
mmap system call. The definitions for these encodings are in arch
specific header files. However, all architectures use the same values.
Consolidate all the definitions in the primary user header file
(uapi/linux/mman.h). Include definitions for all known huge page sizes.
Use the generic encoding definitions in hugetlb_encode.h as the basis
for these definitions.
