Jack Steiner reported this to have fixed his problem (bad colouring):
"The patches fix both problems that I found - bad
coloring & excessive pages in pagesets."
In most workloads this is not likely to be such a pronounced problem,
however it should help corner cases. And avoiding powers of 2 in these
types of memory operations is always a good idea.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
