I'm still a bit concerned about if we actually need the 'struct page' pointer. I've gone through all of the users, and I'm not sure that I see any that _require_ having a pointer in 'struct page'. I think it will take some rework, especially with the pagetables, but it should be quite doable.
vmalloc: Store in vm_struct fd_set_bits: poll_get: mount hashtable: Don't need alignment. use the slab? pagetables: either store in an extra field of 'struct page', or use the mm's. mm should always be available when alloc/freeing a pagetable page
Did I miss any?
