I see this one only in powerpc, I think it can be removed.

This looks like an older comment, I think we have eliminated them from the
mainline kernel in all drivers, so you should remove them here too.

I don't see REALSHMLBA anywhere in the kernel, do you need it?

For SHMLBA, I think it should be defined as an absolute number, using
the maximum
that you might need for any possible value of PAGE_SIZE. Otherwise user space
has a much harder time figuring out what it should use.
