I have misgivings about end_page_fs_misc which uses this flag but has no 
in-tree users to show how it is used and, hmm, isn't even _GPL.  What is up?

And note the wrongness tacked onto the end of page-flags.h.  I didn't do it!
This is provide-a-filesystem-specific-syncable-page-bit.patch, and it's 
only in -mm.

Since this was done only for CacheFS, and Andrew dropped CacheFS from 
-mm he could drop this patch as well.
