[PATCH] fix alloc_large_system_hash() roundup

The "rounded up to nearest power of 2 in size" algorithm in
alloc_large_system_hash is not correct.  As coded, it takes an otherwise
acceptable power-of-2 value and doubles it.  For example, we see the error
if we boot with thash_entries=2097152 which produces a hash table with
4194304 entries.
