Why would you need this in a driver ? This represents the
default HugeTLB page size.

Libnvdimm uses HPAGE_SIZE for a few things that it probably shouldn't.
I have sent a fix for libnvdimm, but that hasn't been merged yet and
this was breaking mpe's -next builds in the mean time. I agree it's
kind of bad, but we needed ZONE_DEVICE support to be in 4.13.
