Please review this enhancement that passes the requested page size in `ReservedSpace` down to the OS-layer.

**Summary**
After recent refactoring `ReservedSpace` now store the page size used for a reservation. To make this more consistent this change passes down the page size from the `ReservedSpace` down to the OS-layer when using explicit large pages. Currently this is not really needed because we only support one large page size during the lifetime of the JVM, but this will change with PR #1153. That PR will be simpler to implement if the requested page size is passed down from the layers above. 

**Testing**
Local testing together with parts of PR #1153. Mach5 tier 1-3
