This should be "Link:" and it should reference lore.kernel.org by
msg-id. Lore is maintained by LF infrastructure and the message-id can
be used to search lore.kernel.org mirrors even if the LF infra is down.

Just use the kernel's __ffs64() which does not require the substraction
fixup, and you can assume that physical_address_mask is non-zero just
like trace_extlog_mem_event() does.

This fixup can then be removed as well.

After the above comments are addressed you can add:
