We will save allocated tag in the object header to indicate that it's
allocated.

	handle |= OBJ_ALLOCATED_TAG;

So the object header needs to reserve LSB for this tag bit.

But the handle itself doesn't need to reserve LSB to save tag, since it's
only used to find the position of object, by (pfn + obj_idx).  So remove
LSB reserve from handle, one more bit can be used as obj_idx.
