x86, mm: get ASLR work for hugetlb mappings

Matthew noticed that hugetlb doesn't participate in ASLR on x86-64.  The
reason is genereic hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() which is used on x86-64.
It doesn't support randomization and use bottom-up unmapped area lookup,
instead of usual top-down on x86-64.

x86 has arch-specific hugetlb_get_unmapped_area(), but it's used only on
x86-32.

Let's use arch-specific hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() on x86-64 too.  It
fixes the issue and make hugetlb use top-down unmapped area lookup.
