I did not look deeply into why the exact number 0xa410 was used in the
past. I built the macro DSISR_PAGE_FAULT_MASK using whatever bits make
up 0xa410. BIT35 if added to the DSISR_PAGE_FAULT_MASK would make it
0xb410. So I did not consider it.

However the macro for BIT35 is already defined in this patch, if that is what you were
looking for.
+#define DSISR_BIT35 0x10000000 /* not defined */
