The use of PAGE_SIZE is odd.  It's either too large (inefficient) or
too small (disaster).

Is it not practical to calculate this precisely?

checkpatch correctly points out that the body of the switch statement
should be indented one tabstop less than this.

which would give more room for cleaning this up.
