The huge page size could be 16G(0x400000000) on ppc64 architecture, and it will

Huh? ppc64 is 64-bit system and sizeof(void *) is equal to
sizeof(unsigned long) on Linux (LP64 model).
So where your 0xFFFFFFFF comes from?
The size of unsigned long data type is 4 bytes
No, it's not.
Sorry, my fault!
I print the unsigned long with "%ul" instead of "%lu" and got the wrong
result. Sorry!
