I intend to chunk up the -aa VM patch and feed it into 2.4.19-pre. I think Andrea's OK with that. Just the VM and buffercache bits. Something also needs to be done about block-highmem and pte-highmem.
It'll take some time - it needs to go in across several releases so we can keep an eye on its effects, and there seem to be quite a lot of little personal patchpiles banked up for 2.4.19.
