The code added for allowing --huge-dir to specify hugetlbfs
sub-directories has a bug where it incorrectly matches mounts that
contain a prefix of the specified --huge-dir.

Consider --huge-dir=/dev/hugepages1G is passed to rte_eal_init. Given
the following hugetlbfs mounts

$ mount | grep hugetlbfs
hugetlbfs on /dev/hugepages type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,pagesize=2M)
hugetlbfs on /dev/hugepages1G type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,pagesize=1024M)
hugetlbfs on /mnt/huge type hugetlbfs (rw,relatime,pagesize=2M)

get_hugepage_dir is first called with hugepage_sz=2097152. While
iterating over all mount points, /dev/hugepages is incorrectly
determined to be a match because it's a prefix of --huge-dir. The caller
then obtains an exclusive lock on --huge-dir.

In the next call to get_hugepage_dir, hugepage_sz=1073741824. This call
correctly determines /dev/hugepages1G is a match. The caller again
attempts to obtain an exclusive lock on --huge-dir and deadlocks because
it's already holding a lock.

This has been corrected by ensuring any matched mount point is either an
exact match or a parent path of --huge-dir.

Fixes: 24d5a1ce6b85 ("eal/linux: allow hugetlbfs sub-directories")
