SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/4] RFC - ksm api change into madvise

It looks about right to me, and how delightful to be rid of that
horrid odirect_sync argument!

For now I'll turn a blind eye to your idiosyncratic return code
convention (0 for success, 1 for failure: we're already schizoid
enough with 0 for failure, 1 for success boolean functions versus
0 for success, -errno for failure functions): you're being consistent
with yourself, let's run through ksm.c at a later date to sort that out.

One improvment to make now, though: you've elsewhere avoided
the pgd,pud,pmd,pte descent in ksm.c (using get_pte instead), and
page_check_address() is not static to rmap.c (filemap_xip wanted it),
so please continue to use that. It's not exported, right, but I think
Chris was already decisive that we should abandon modular KSM, yes?

So I think slip in a patch before this one to remove the modular
option, so as not to generate traffic from people who build all
modular kernels. Or if you think the modular option should remain,
append an EXPORT_SYMBOL to page_check_address().

Thanks,
Hugh
