Subject: [rfc 02/10] Pageflags: Introduce macros to generate page flag functions

Introduce a set of macros that generate functions to handle page flags.


A page flag function group typically starts with either

	SETPAGEFLAG(<part of function name>,<part of PG_ flagname>)

to create a set of page flag operations that are atomic. Or

	__SETPAGEFLAG(<part of function name>,<part of PG_ flagname)

to create a set of page flag operations that are not atomic.


Then additional operations can be added using the following macros

TESTSCFLAG		Create additional atomic test-and-set and
			test-and-clear functions

TESTSETFLAG		Create additional test and set function
TESTCLEARFLAG		Create additional test and clear function
TESTPAGEFLAG		Create additional atomic set function
SETPAGEFLAG		Create additional atomic clear function
__TESTPAGEFLAG		Create additional atomic set function
__SETPAGEFLAG		Create additional atomic clear function
