This patch shuffles some bits in vma->vm_flags
before patch:
0x00000200 0x01000000 0x20000000 0x40000000
x86 VM_NOHUGEPAGE VM_HUGEPAGE - VM_PAT
powerpc - - VM_SAO -
parisc VM_GROWSUP - - -
ia64 VM_GROWSUP - - -
nommu - VM_MAPPED_COPY - -
others - - - -
after patch:
0x00000200 0x01000000 0x20000000 0x40000000
x86 - VM_PAT VM_HUGEPAGE VM_NOHUGEPAGE
powerpc - VM_SAO - -
parisc - VM_GROWSUP - -
ia64 - VM_GROWSUP - -
nommu - VM_MAPPED_COPY - -
others - VM_ARCH_1 - -
And voila! One completely free bit.
