Hmm. Shouldn't we do this _regardless_?

IOW, shouldn't this be a totally separate patch? It seems to be left-over 
from when we shared the same code-paths, and before the split of the STR 
and hibernate code?

IOW, shouldn't the very _first_ patch just be this part? That code doesn't 
make any sense anyway (that FREE_PAGE_NUMBER really _is_ totally 
arbitrary).

This part seems to be totally independent of all the other parts in your 
patch-series. No?
