runtime: mark pages we return to kernel as NOHUGEPAGE
We return memory to the kernel with madvise(..., DONTNEED). Also mark returned memory with NOHUGEPAGE to keep the kernel from merging this memory into a huge page, effectively reallocating it. Only known to be a problem on linux/{386,amd64,amd64p32} at the moment. It may come up on other os/arch combinations in the future.
