Hi!
We can remove it but then all values will shift. That should be safe
to do now but I prefer one patch to do only one thing. We can add a
separate patch to do further cleanup of unused values.

I suppose that would not hurt, except gfp_t is unsigned int, not long.
Something like this would work I think:

BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(___GFP_LAST_BIT > BITS_PER_TYPE(gfp_t), "GFP bit overflow");

except I'm not sure where to put this check. One of the __init
functions in page_alloc.c would probably work but none seem to be
appropriate. mm_core_init() perhaps? Other ideas?

Until the cleanup I would prefer to have it here to denote the gap.
Thanks,
