Subject2.5.64-mjb2 (scalability / NUMA patchset)
The patchset contains mainly scalability and NUMA stuff, and anything 
else that stops things from irritating me. It's meant to be pretty stable,
not so much a testing ground for new stuff.

I'd be very interested in feedback from anyone willing to test on any
platform, however large or small.

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mbligh/2.5.65/patch-2.5.65-mjb
2.bz2

additional:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mbligh/2.5.65/400-shpte
http://www.aracnet.com/~fletch/linux/2.5.59/pidmaps_nodepages

Since 2.5.65-mjb1 (~ = changed, + = added, - = dropped)

Notes: Broke shpte out separately, it seems a little fragile under certain
workloads at the moment.
