I misread your patch.  Your patch may be incorrect in that the flags 
variable you introduce has name space collisions with code using the 
macro.  Linus found this exact problem with the first version of my 
patch (which was identical to your patch).

Once you fix the name of 'flags', I hope you don't run into the same 
Include Hell on ia64 and mn10300 that I did.
