CONFIG_PAGE_SHIFT was introduced in the Linux kernel in February 2024
(commit ba89f9c8ccba ("arch: consolidate existing CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_*KB
definitions")). Older kernels had CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_4KB,
CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_16KB, etc. This means that it is possible to derive the
kernel page size from the kernel configuration file for all upstream and
distro kernels, isn't it?

Thanks,

Bart.
