On powerpc it is always (from arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h) :

/*
  * Subtle: (1 << PAGE_SHIFT) is an int, not an unsigned long. So if we
  * assign PAGE_MASK to a larger type it gets extended the way we want
  * (i.e. with 1s in the high bits)
  */
#define PAGE_MASK      (~((1 << PAGE_SHIFT) - 1))

#define PAGE_SIZE		(1UL << PAGE_SHIFT)


So it would work I guess.
