    How about a pair of parentheses at a strategic place? :)

    Other than that, your previous (-6?) patch really works good here.

    It was once that I wanted to get rid of kswapd, too, but I thought it would
    surely harm performance, so I dumped the idea. Now, I'm not at all sure. :)

    Keep trying!
