mm/slab.c: page size > 8Kb ?



I'm working on a port of linux 2.2.17 to an architecture that supports
a minimum page size of 16Kb.  Inside mm/slab.c, I notice:

/* If there is a different PAGE_SIZE around, and it works with this allocator,
 * then change the following.
 */
#if	(PAGE_SIZE != 8192 && PAGE_SIZE != 4096)
#error	Your page size is probably not correctly supported - please check
#endif

which suggests that nobody has tested this code with other page sizes.  

Where would I begin to find out if any other page sizes have been
tested.  Specifically, I'm looking to implement a page size of 16K.
