Thanks for this! So I am currently running my xfstests on the new series
I am planning to send in a day or two based on next-20240523.

I assume this patch is intended to be folded in to the next LBS series?

As you changed the mapping flag offset, these masks also needs to be
changed accordingly.

I moved(pun intended) the AS_UNMOVABLE and kept the
AS_FOLIO_ORDER_(MIN|MAX) value the same.

	AS_FOLIO_ORDER_MIN = 8,
	AS_FOLIO_ORDER_MAX = 13, /* Bit 8-17 are used for FOLIO_ORDER */
	AS_UNMOVABLE = 18,	 /* The mapping cannot be moved, ever */
	AS_INACCESSIBLE,	/* Do not attempt direct R/W access to the mapping */
