Removed the use of MAP_HUGETLB for anonymous mapping on ppc64. The
MAP_HUGETLB had previously been added to workaround issues on IBM Power8
systems when mapping /dev/zero.
In the current code the MAP_HUGETLB flag will cause the anonymous mapping
to fail on Power9.
Note, Power8 is currently failing to correctly mmap Hugepages, with and
without this change.
