Again, nothing broken here, just a code readability thing. As Alexey 
(and Charlie) noted, given the above it is a little confusing to define 
_PAGE_CACHE_CTL this way:

  #define _PAGE_CACHE_CTL      (_PAGE_NON_IDEMPOTENT | _PAGE_TOLERANT)

I like Alexey's idea, maybe just use a literal?

  #define _PAGE_CACHE_CTL 0x30
