Just a note that the usage of new __bitwise types instead of "unsigned" is
encouraged for flags.

See rmap_t in include/linux/rmap.h as an example.

Hmmm... rmap_t really ought to be unsigned int.

Not sure if that particularly matters here in practice, ... anyhow

$ git grep "typedef int" | grep __bitwise | wc -l
27
$ git grep "typedef unsigned" | grep __bitwise | wc -l
23

So chose what you prefer ;)
