Only bit 1 is used, making an unsigned long a total overkill.

This brings it from 64 to 32 bytes, which in turn shrinks user_struct
from 136 to 128 bytes. Since the latter is allocated with hwalign, this
means the total usage goes down from 192 to 128 bytes per object.

No functional changes.

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --git was most unhelpful showing nothing

I have no idea who to prod about it, I think it is pretty trivial not
needing any discussion.

Andrew Morton pulled in some of the changes to the file, so that's my
primary recipient.

sigh, 40 to 32 bytes of course

this is embedded into user_struct, avoidably pushing it past 128 bytes
of size
