Can you please retain the *PageFsMisc names I've been using in my stuff?

In my opinion putting the "Fs" bit first gives a clearer indication that
this is a bit exclusively for the use of filesystems in general.

You also achieved some sort of new low point in the abuse of StudlyCaps there. 
Please, let's not get started on mixed case acronyms.

Anyway, it sounds like you want to bless the use of private page flags in 
filesystems.  That is most probably a bad idea.  Take a browse through the 
existing users and feast your eyes on the spectacular lack of elegance.

Daniel
