get_align_mask() returns huge_page_mask_align() for hugetlbfs, but
get_align_bits() adds va_align.bits regardless, so vm_unmapped_area()
returns an address off the huge page boundary and
__unmap_hugepage_range() hits BUG_ON(start & ~huge_page_mask(h)) at
teardown.
Pass the file to get_align_bits() and skip the randomisation for
hugetlbfs. Reproduced on Carrizo and FX-8370E, both hstates.

v2: put the hugetlb case in get_align_bits() instead of guarding both call
sites, per Dave's suggestion to pass filp through. Masking rather than
returning early cannot clear the bits: va_align.mask is an L1I way
size, so it is a subset of huge_page_mask_align().
Re-tested on Carrizo, both hstates.
