Minor nitpick: the established naming convention is two underscores, not one.

that should be marked as static now actually since the function isnt
for use outside of this file

I assume this is significantly faster on your architecture than:

bulk = size & ~0xFFFFUL;

which is more readable?

actually they should get optimized to the same thing
