doc-unevictable-lru-and-mlocked-pages-documentation.patch
vmscam-kill-unused-lru-functions.patch

with a view to merging the mmu-notifiers patches into 2.6.27-rc1. I
expect that the above patches are 2.6.28 material.


Consequently some of the above patches needed some rework which should
be checked, please. In particular, do the above patches add new code
which needs mmu-notifier treatment?

Patches which actually required reject fixing were:

unevictable-lru-infrastructure.patch
mlock-mlocked-pages-are-unevictable.patch
mmap-handle-mlocked-pages-during-map-remap-unmap.patch
swap-cull-unevictable-pages-in-fault-path.patch

but really the whole MM needs reviewing to check that the
post-mmu-motifiers changes didn't break mmu notifiers. We have about
three months in which to get that done.
