Renumber FOLL_PIN and FOLL_GET down to bit 0 and 1 respectively so that

(something I'm looking at for zerocopy socket fragments).
(Note that BIO_PAGE_REFFED should probably be got rid of at some point,
hence why FOLL_PIN is at 0.)
Also renumber down the other FOLL_* flags to close the gaps.
Should we also get these sorted into internal-to-mm and public sets?
Because Jason (+Cc) again was about to split them apart into
mm/internal.h [1] and that might make that a little cleaner.
I see that I omitted both Jason's Cc and the reference, so I'll resend.
Sorry for the extra noise.

Also, I don't think that there is any large readability difference
either way between 0x and <<1, so whatever you and Christophe settle on
there seems fine.
So either way with those points,
