Subject: drbd: avoid redefinition of BITS_PER_PAGE
From: Lars Ellenberg <lars.ellenberg@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 2630628b2dbc3fc320aafaf84836119e4e3d62f1 upstream.
Apparently we now implicitly get definitions for BITS_PER_PAGE and
BITS_PER_PAGE_MASK from the pid_namespace.h
Instead of renaming our defines, I chose to define only if not yet
defined, but to double check the value if already defined.
