We need to move things aroind between files anyway - it's best that I drop
everything so it can all be refactored. Please keep the same breakup
(patch swap_prefetch.c separately, reiser4 as well).

Also, it's really preferable that the kernel compile and work at each step
of the series. V1 didn't come close.

So the series needs significant restructuring.

That would be nice. I was worried about fixing the per-cpu errors in
page-flags.h because that adds lots of include dependencies and we'd
probably introduce build breakage.
