At this point we only have 4K, 2M and

I think this is a CPU hardware restriction.
Hi, dpdk users,
I read the section about hugepages in:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/linux_gsg/sys_reqs.html?highlight=hugepages
So I understand that the common hugepage sizes used in x86 architectures are 2MB
and 1GB (if 1GB is supported on the CPU, which can be checked by
inspecting the CPU flags)
