Subject: [PATCH] mm: Define KB, MB, GB, TB in core VM

There are many places where we define size either left shifting integers
or multiplying 1024s without any generic definition to fall back on. But
there are couples of (powerpc and lz4) attempts to define these standard
memory sizes. Lets move these definitions to core VM to make sure that
all new usage come from these definitions eventually standardizing it
across all places.
