SubjectRe: [PATCH 3/6] ksm: change the KSM_REMOVE_MEMORY_REGION ioctl.

Here's where I left off last time (refreshed against a current mmotm).

It needs to get converted to vma rather than still scanning via slots.
It's got locking issues (I think this can be remedied w/ vma
conversion). I think the scan list would be ->mm and each ->mm we'd
scan the vma's that are marked VM_MERGEABLE or whatever.
