How about just putting it in "gid16.c" and then adding a CONFIG_GID16
config variable. Then architectures that want it (pretty much all, no?)
can then obviously just do the

config GID16
bool
default y

in their Kconfig files and be happy. Add the obvious

obj-$(CONFIG_GID16) += gid16.o

to the kernel makefile and you're done. Looks surgically clean, and
follows existing practice wrt uid16.

Ok?
