I pretty much take anything from Andrew, unless I hate it (and the latest version of the transparent huge-page was ok).
That said, I did think that Andrew's -mm tree was in -next, and there clearly is some serious problem wrt -mm and -next if this wasn't caught earlier there.
I was also expecting the fixups to come through Andrew, and they haven't. I can apply whatever people agree is sane, but right now I don't even know what the final patch for this problem is.
