Subject: [RHEL7 PATCH 11/31] hugeutils: Add utility to check if slices are
supported
This adds an utility to check if the current processor
architecture supports slices. Slices are used to divide
up a virtual address space and put certain restrictions
like on powerpc64 with Hash MMU where one can have only
one page size per slice.
