commit e938ba0c tried to enable -mem-path for ppc but breaked some ppc
boards.
The problems are:
1. it fails when allocating memory for rom, sram whose sizes are less
than huge page size:
./ppc-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc -m 512 -mem-path /hugepages/ \
-kernel /home/hutao/Downloads/vmlinux-ppc -initrd \
/home/hutao/Downloads/initrd-ppc.gz
qemu-system-ppc: /mnt/data/projects/qemu/exec.c:1184: qemu_ram_set_idstr: Assertion `new_block' failed.
2. if there is a numa node backed by memory backend object, qemu fails
with message:
./ppc-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc -m 512 \
-object memory-backend-file,size=512M,mem-path=/hugepages,id=f0 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=f0 \
-kernel /home/hutao/Downloads/vmlinux-ppc \
-initrd /home/hutao/Downloads/initrd-ppc.gz
qemu-system-ppc: memory backend f0 is used multiple times. Each -numa option must use a different memdev value.
This patch does following:
1. replaces memory_region_allocate_system_memory() with
memory_region_init_ram() for rom, sram. Then only system memory
is backed by hugepages when specifying mem-path.
2. for memory banks, allocates all ram with
one memory_region_allocate_system_memory(), and use
memory_region_init_alias() to initialize memory banks.
Tested machines: default(g3beige), mac99, taihu, bamboo, ref405ep.

Commit 0b183fc871:"memory: move mem_path handling to
memory_region_allocate_system_memory" split memory_region_init_ram and
memory_region_init_ram_from_file. Also it moved mem-path handling a step
up from memory_region_init_ram to memory_region_allocate_system_memory.
Therefore for any board that uses memory_region_init_ram directly,
-mem-path is not supported.
Fix this by replacing memory_region_init_ram with
memory_region_allocate_system_memory.

Add U suffix to various places where we were doing "1 << 31",
which is undefined behaviour, and also to other constant
definitions in the same groups, for consistency.

Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.
