Subject: hugetlbfs: fix a truncation issue in hugepages parameter
When we specify a large number for node in hugepages parameter, it may be
parsed to another number due to truncation in this statement:
node = tmp;
For example, add following parameter in command line:
hugepagesz=1G hugepages=4294967297:5
and kernel will allocate 5 hugepages for node 1 instead of ignoring it.
I move the validation check earlier to fix this issue, and slightly
simplifies the condition here.
