[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] vhost: fix mmap failure as len not aligned with hugepage size

This patch fixes a bug under lower version linux kernel, mmap()
fails when length is not aligned with hugepage size. mmap()
without flag of MAP_ANONYMOUS, should be called with length
argument aligned with hugepagesz at older longterm version
Linux, like 2.6.32 and 3.2.72, or mmap() will fail with EINVAL.
This bug was fixed in Linux kernel by commit:
dab2d3dc45ae7343216635d981d43637e1cb7d45
To avoid failure, make sure in caller to keep length aligned.
