Subject: [RFC PATCH RESEND v3] <linux/tagptr.h>: Introduce tagged pointer
Currently kernel has scattered tagged pointer usages hacked
by hand in plain code, without a unique and portable functionset
to highlight the tagged pointer itself and wrap these hacked code
in order to clean up all over meaningless magic masks.
Therefore, this patch introduces simple generic methods to fold
tags into a pointer integer. It currently supports the last n bits
of the pointer for tags, which can be selected by users.
In addition, it will also be used for the upcoming EROFS filesystem,
which heavily uses tagged pointer approach for high performance
and reducing extra memory allocation.

change log v3:
- include/linux/file.h: define a unique alias fdtagptr_t (tagptr2_t)
change log v2:
- add support to select the last {1,2,3,...} bits for tags
Tagged pointers are good for performance and memory saving,
hoping for a generic taggedptr approach to clean up redundant dirty code.
Any comments, suggestions or alternative approaches are welcomed. :)
Thanks,
Gao Xiang
