	NR_PAGEFLAGS specifies the number of page flags we are using. From that we can calculate the number of bits leftover that can be used for zone, node (and maybe the sections id). There is no need anymore for FLAGS_RESERVED if we use NR_PAGEFLAGS. Use the new methods to make NR_PAGEFLAGS available via the preprocessor. NR_PAGEFLAGS is used to calculate field boundaries in the page flags fields. These field widths have to be available to the preprocessor.

2008-04-28	kbuild: create a way to create preprocessor constants from C expressions	Christoph Lameter	1	-0/+19
	The use of enums create constants that are not available to the preprocessor when building the kernel (f.e. MAX_NR_ZONES). Arch code already has a way to export constants calculated to the preprocessor through the asm-offsets.c file. Generate something similar for the core kernel through kbuild.
