[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: change max hugepage sizes to 4

[Gagandeep Singh]

DPDK currently is supporting maximum 3 hugepage,
sizes whereas system can support more than this e.g.
64K, 2M, 32M and 1G.

Having these four hugepage sizes available to use by DPDK,
which is valid in case of '--in-memory' EAL option or
using 4 separate mount points for each hugepage size;
hugepage_info_init() API reports an error.

This change increases the maximum supported mount points
to 4.
