Subject: [PATCH] page-types: kernel pageflags mode

An earlier commit taught page-types the -d|--describe argument, which
allows the user to describe page flags passed on the command line:

  # ./Documentation/vm/page-types -d 0x4000
  0x0000000000004000  ______________b___________________  swapbacked

In -d mode, page-types expects the page flag bits in the order generated
by the kernel function get_uflags().

However, those bits are rearranged compared to what is actually stored
in struct page->flags. A kernel developer dumping a page's flags
using printk, e.g., may get misleading results in -d mode.

Teach page-types the -k mode, which parses and describes the bits in
the internal kernel order:

  # ./Documentation/vm/page-types -k 0x4000
  0x0000000000004000  ______________H_________  compound_head

Note that the recommended way to build page-types is from the top-level
kernel source directory. This ensures that it will get the same CONFIG_*
defines used to build the kernel source.

  # make Documentation/vm/

The implication is that attempting to use page-types -k on a kernel
with different CONFIG_* settings may lead to surprising and misleading
results. To retain sanity, always use the page-types built out of the
kernel tree you are actually testing.
