It should have been a define rather than in xv_create_pool but as I read
more about GCC constant propagation and look at the get_index_for_insert
I believe that this patch is unnecessary. For sizes near PAGE_SIZE
(>XV_MAX_ALLOC_SIZE) I believe GCC constant propagation should do
exactly what I though I was trying to do. I will drop this patch.
Thank you for your reviews.
