statfs(2)'s man page (release 3.21) lists HUGETLBFS_MAGIC among other
constants of its type (these #define's really ought perhaps become an enum,
but that's another patch). It isn't actually exported, though; it's buried
within inode.c in fs/hugetlbfs/. This patch updates the interface against
documentation and expectation, bringing hugetlbfs support to statfs(2). 
Thanks to Pekka Enberg for feedback!
