[PATCH QEMU] osdep: powerpc64 align memory to allow 2MB radix THP page tables

This allows KVM with the Book3S radix MMU mode to take advantage of
THP and install larger pages in the partition scope page tables (the
host translation).

       Valgrind does not support alignments larger than 1 MiB,
       therefore we need special code which handles running on Valgrind. */

I've applied this to my ppc-for-3.0 tree.  It's not strictly within
the code I maintain, but since it only affects ppc, it seems
reasonable to go through my tree.
