Actually, the comment in this file says:

```
4 /*
5  * Generic page.h implementation, for NOMMU architectures.
6  * This provides the dummy definitions for the memory management.
7  */
```

so it seems I was wrong about this being an appropriate place.

Let me just try to cram this into mm.h and send it out, and then we'll see 
what comments people suggest.

Thanks.
