Forgot to say this earlier. Please put the changes after the changelog
itself, i.e. after the '---'

I can see the 8 bytes, but where is the shift constant?

Ditto.

Otherwise this macro zoo looks good.

               ....  entries - 1); 

And you might explain why nr_entries - 1 is a proper mask,
i.e. nr_entries is always a power of 2.

You could store the scale value out in the if () construct above, but I
guess the compiler can figure that out as well :)

cpu_info->x86_phys_bits will tell you the proper value

And for a 32bit kernel 32 might be wrong because with PAE you have 36
bits.

But a 32bit kernel will not take this code path because
is_64bit_mm(mm) evaluates to false.

Can't we provide the shift values from bd_entry_virt_space() so we
don't have to worry about gcc versions being more or less clever?
