Subject2.5.65-mm3

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.5/2.5.65/2.5.65-mm3/

Will appear later at:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.65/2.5.65-mm3/


. There is a significnat one-line fix to the CFQ IO scheduler here. It
possibly invalidates testing which was previously performed against CFQ.

. Added Hugh's new rmap-without-pte_chains-for-anon-pages patches. Mainly
for interested parties to test and benchmark at this stage.

It seems to be stable, however it is not clear that this passes the
benefit-vs-disruption test.
