I know this gets moved again in the eighth patch of the series, but the
#define still has no place inside the struct definition.
The pss is going to need accessor functions, preferably inlined, and the
comment adjusted stating that all accesses should be through those
functions and not directly to the mem_size_stats struct.
static inline u64 pss_up(unsigned long pss)
{
return pss << PSS_DIV_BITS;
}
static inline unsigned long pss_down(u64 pss)
{
return pss >> PSS_DIV_BITS;
}
