Subject: linux/mm.h: canonicalize macro PAGE_ALIGNED() definition
macro PAGE_ALIGNED() is prone to cause error because it doesn't follow
convention to parenthesize parameter @addr within macro body, for example
unsigned long *ptr = kmalloc(...); PAGE_ALIGNED(ptr + 16); for the left
parameter of macro IS_ALIGNED(), (unsigned long)(ptr + 16) is desired but
the actual one is (unsigned long)ptr + 16.
It is fixed by simply canonicalizing macro PAGE_ALIGNED() definition.
