I applied this to 2.6.29 and its not working correctly

I end up with lots of:

[69054.063788] Write-error on swap-device (254:0:13912)

[69054.063904] Write-error on swap-device (254:0:13944)

type messages and trying to cat /proc/ramzswap causes an opps

[85235.218474] ---[ end trace aa4e537802c34b22 ]---

System is amd64 with 3 cpus, 8G with hugepa and page migration enabled and used by java (always active) and kvm (on demand).

I start it with (sdb2 is a 1G swapfile):

modprobe ramzswap backing_swap=/dev/sdb2
swapon /dev/ramzswap0 -p 100

After its loaded /proc/ramzcat works. Once I've seen write error on swapdevice message it fails.

I would love to see this working.

Thanks,
Ed Tomlinson
