    malloc: Enable huge page support on main arena
    
    This patch adds support huge page support on main arena allocation,
    enable with tunable glibc.malloc.hugetlb=2.  The patch essentially
    disable the __glibc_morecore() sbrk() call (similar when memory
    tag does when sbrk() call does not support it) and fallback to
    default page size if the memory allocation fails.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
