Kamezawa-San, Andrew,

I think patches 1 and 2 are ready to go. Andrew they remove the cgroup member
from struct page and will help reduce the overhead for distros that care about
32 bit systems and also help with performance (in my runs so far).

I would recommend pushing 1 and 2 right away to -mm followed by the other
performance improvements. Comments?
