[RFC/PATCH] zcache2 on PPC64 (Was: [RFC] mm: add support for zsmalloc and zcache)

[Dan Magenheimer <dan.magenheimer@oracle.com>]

Attached patch applies to staging-next and I _think_ should
fix the reported problem where zbud in zcache2 does not
work on a PPC64 with PAGE_SIZE!=12.  I do not have a machine
to test this so testing by others would be appreciated.

Ideally there should also be a BUILD_BUG_ON to ensure
PAGE_SHIFT * 2 + 2 doesn't exceed BITS_PER_LONG, but
let's see if this fixes the problem first.

Apologies if there are line breaks... I can't send this from
a linux mailer right now.  If it is broken, let me know,
and I will re-post tomorrow... though it should be easy
to apply manually for test purposes.
