Typically a change like this would be proposed along with a change to an
architecture which would define this new ARCH_PKMAP_COLORING and have its
own overriding definitions. Based on who you sent this patch to, it looks
like that would be mips and xtensa. Now the only question is where are
those patches to add the alternate definitions for those platforms?

This is typically done with do {} while (0).

That's not gramatically proper.

And that's not equivalent at all, --count decrements the auto variable and
then tests it for being non-zero. Your get_next_pkmap_counter() never
decrements count.
