At least PG_uncached isn't used on many architectures too, so could
be reused. I don't know why those that use it don't check VMAs instead.
PG_unchecked appears to be totally unused. It's only users are the macros
that manipulate the bit and mm/page_alloc.c . It appears it has been a
long time since it was used to it is a canditate for reuse.
Just a notification..

This is used by fs, now.
