powerpc/mm/hugetlb: Filter out hugepage size not supported by page table layout

Without this if firmware reports 1MB page size support we will crash
trying to use 1MB as hugetlb page size.

echo 300 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1024kB/nr_hugepages

kernel BUG at ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/hugetlb.h:19!

With fix, we don't enable 1MB as hugepage size.
