CSIT-217 Hugepage configuration on physical LF testbeds
If Qemu requires more Hugepages than availbale in system it fails to start. This patch is aimed to add option to configure more hugepages needed. Default behavior is to fail to start if amount of hugepages is lower then required. Change-Id: I64bd8a5ec5bfa559676035c23001b12d00b026a5 Signed-off-by: pmikus <pmikus@cisco.com>
