(my concern is not quite within the scope of this submission, but I'll ask
anyway)

Given we have this:

```
git grep '#define K(x)' v5.14
v5.14:drivers/base/node.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT - 10))
v5.14:drivers/net/hamradio/scc.c:#define K(x) kiss->x
v5.14:kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_main.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT - 10))
v5.14:mm/backing-dev.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT - 10))
v5.14:mm/memcontrol.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT-10))
v5.14:mm/oom_kill.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT-10))
v5.14:mm/page_alloc.c:#define K(x) ((x) << (PAGE_SHIFT-10))
```

Shouldn't this macro go to some header file instead to get rid of define
repetitions?

Thanks.
