Oh. You need another 4 bytes. Hmm.
Can you share _refcount?
Using _pt_pad_2 should be possible, but some care will be needed to make
sure it's (a) in a union with an unsigned long to keep the alignment
as expected, and (b) is definitely zero before the page is freed (or
the page allocator will squawk at you).
