mm/hugetlb: Allow arch to override and call the weak function

When running in guest mode ppc64 supports a different mechanism for hugetlb allocation/reservation. The LPAR management application called HMC can be used to reserve a set of hugepages and we pass the details of reserved pages via device tree to the guest. (more details in htab_dt_scan_hugepage_blocks()) . We do the memblock_reserve of the range and later in the boot sequence, we add the reserved range to huge_boot_pages. But to enable 16G hugetlb on baremetal config (when we are not running as guest) we want to do memblock reservation during boot.
