    Subject[PATCH] change global zonelist order v4 [0/2]
    Hi, this is version 4. including Lee Schermerhon's good rework.
    and automatic configuration at boot time.
    
    (This patch is reworked from V2, so skip V3 changelog.)
    
    ChangeLog V2 -> V4
    - automatic configuration is added.
    - automatic configuration is now default.
    - relaxed_zone_order is renamed to be numa_zonelist_order
      you can specify value "default" , "zone" , "numa"
    - clean-up from Lee Schermerhorn
    - patch is speareted to "base" and "autoconfiguration algorithm"
    
    Changelog from V1 -> V2
    - sysctl name is changed to be relaxed_zone_order
    - NORMAL->NORMAL->....->DMA->DMA->DMA order (new ordering) is now default.
      NORMAL->DMA->NORMAL->DMA order (old ordering) is optional.
    - addes boot opttion to set relaxed_zone_order. ia64 is supported now.
    - Added documentation
    
    Please don't hesitate to rework this if you have good plan.
    I'll be offlined in the next week because my office will be closed.
    Lee-san, please Ack or Sign-Off if patches seems O.K.
    
    I think my autoconfiguration logic is reasonable to some extent. But we may
    have some discussion. It can be rewritable by additional patch easily.
    
    Thanks.
