[PATCH] Fix UML on non-standard VM split hosts

This fixes UML on hosts with non-standard VM splits.  We had changed the
config variable that controls UML behavior on such hosts, but not
propogated the change everywhere.  In particular, the values of STUB_CODE
and STUB_DATA relied on the old variable.

I also reformatted the HOST_VMSPLIT_3G help to make it more standard.

This is needed when the host kernel on which you run has a non-default
(like 2G/2G) memory split, instead of the customary 3G/1G. If you did
not recompile your own kernel but use the default distro's one, you can
safely accept the "Default split" option.

It can be enabled on recent (>=2.6.16-rc2) vanilla kernels via
CONFIG_VM_SPLIT_*, or on previous kernels with special patches (-ck
patchset by Con Kolivas, or other ones) - option names match closely the
host CONFIG_VM_SPLIT_* ones.

A lower setting (where 1G/3G is lowest and 3G/1G is higher) will
tolerate even more "normal" host kernels, but an higher setting will be
stricter.
