+ * The maximum size of a shmem/tmpfs file is limited by the maximum size of
+ * its triple-indirect swap vector - see illustration at shmem_swp_entry().
+ *
+ * With 4kB page size, maximum file size is just over 2TB on a 32-bit kernel,
+ * but one eighth of that on a 64-bit kernel.  With 8kB page size, maximum
+ * file size is just over 4TB on a 64-bit kernel, but 16TB on a 32-bit kernel,
+ * MAX_LFS_FILESIZE being then more restrictive than swap vector layout.
+ *
+ * We use / and * instead of shifts in the definitions below, so that the swap
+ * vector can be tested with small even values (e.g. 20) for ENTRIES_PER_PAGE.
