Well ugh. What are we to do about that? Sigh. This? From: Andrew Morton Subject: mm: check that we haven't used more than 32 bits in address_space.flags After "mm: don't use radix tree writeback tags for pages in swap cache", all the flags are now used up on 32-bit builds. Add a build-time assertion to prevent 64-bit developers from accidentally breaking things.
