Thanks, the hugetlbfs usage up until now has been rather brute force.
I wonder if long term it might be better to defer all this stuff
to another library like libhugetlbfs.
https://github.com/libhugetlbfs/libhugetlbfs
Especially wen dealing with other architectures it might provide
some nice abstraction.
