 * flex_array_alloc - allocate a new flexible array
 * @element_size:	the size of individual elements in the array
 * @total:		total number of elements that this should hold
 * @flags:		page allocation flags to use for base array
 *
 * Note: all locking must be provided by the caller.
 *
 * @total is used to size internal structures.  If the user ever
 * accesses any array indexes >=@total, it will produce errors.
 *
 * The maximum number of elements is defined as: the number of
 * elements that can be stored in a page times the number of
 * page pointers that we can fit in the base structure or (using
 * integer math):
 *
 * 	(PAGE_SIZE/element_size) * (PAGE_SIZE-8)/sizeof(void *)
 *
 * Here's a table showing example capacities.  Note that the maximum
 * index that the get/put() functions is just nr_objects-1.   This
 * basically means that you get 4MB of storage on 32-bit and 2MB on
 * 64-bit.
 *
 *
 * Element size | Objects | Objects |
 * PAGE_SIZE=4k |  32-bit |  64-bit |
 * ---------------------------------|
 *      1 bytes | 4186112 | 2093056 |
 *      2 bytes | 2093056 | 1046528 |
 *      3 bytes | 1395030 |  697515 |
 *      4 bytes | 1046528 |  523264 |
 *     32 bytes |  130816 |   65408 |
 *     33 bytes |  126728 |   63364 |
 *   2048 bytes |    2044 |    1022 |
 *   2049 bytes |    1022 |     511 |
 *       void * | 1046528 |  261632 |
 *
 * Since 64-bit pointers are twice the size, we lose half the
 * capacity in the base structure.  Also note that no effort is made
 * to efficiently pack objects across page boundaries.
