This patchset cleans up page cache handling by replacing
open coded shifts and adds with inline function calls.

The ultimate goal is to replace all uses of PAGE_CACHE_xxx in the
kernel through the use of these functions. All the functions take
a mapping parameter. The mapping parameter is required if we want
to support large block sizes in filesystems and block devices.

Patchset against 2.6.24-rc3-mm2.
