You'd need to define "look-ahead support" before telling us you've added it ;)

OK. But the __SetPageFoo() things still give me the creeps.


OT: look:

read_unlock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock);
page = page_cache_alloc_cold(mapping);
read_lock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock);

we should have a page allocation function which just allocates a page from
this CPU's per-cpu-pages magazine, and fails if the magazine is empty:

page = alloc_pages_local(mapping_gfp_mask(x)|__GFP_COLD);
if (!page) {
read_unlock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock);
/*
* This will refill the per-cpu-pages magazine
*/
page = page_cache_alloc_cold(mapping);
read_lock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock);
}
