I have CODE_PAGE_SIZE in my perf/core branch, was this somehow removed?

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux.git/commit/?h=perf/core&id=c1de7f3d84ca324c7cda85c3ce27b11741af2124

I see, you did this patchkit on top of upstream, that has just
DATA_PAGE_SIZE, while my perf/core branch has CODE_PAGE_SIZE. I'm
adjusting it, please next time do tooling development on acme/perf/core.
