BTW. We are getting close to 16 here which is the max since we encode
the size into a 4-bit field in the slice masks on server.

Any chance if/when you respin, to add a BUILD_BUG_ON somewhere to ensure
that we never accidentally break that limit ? (With a comment).

If we need to scavenge a size, we can always get rid of the AP one, it's
not actually useful (we'll have to find a different way to store the
encodings on server if we ever support multiple size per segment).

Cheers,
Ben.
