Sorry, Yu, I may be out-of-line in sending this: but as you know,
Alex Shi has a long per-memcg lru_lock series playing in much the
same area (particularly conflicting in mm/swap.c and mm/vmscan.c):
a patchset that makes useful changes, that I'm very keen to help
into mmotm a.s.a.p (but not before I've completed diligence).

We've put a lot of effort into its testing, I'm currently reviewing
it patch by patch (my general silence indicating that I'm busy on that,
but slow as ever): so I'm a bit discouraged to have its stability
potentially undermined by conflicting cleanups at this stage.

If there's general agreement that your cleanups are safe and welcome
(Michal's initial reaction sheds some doubt on that), great: I hope
that Andrew can fast-track them into mmotm, then Alex rebase on top
of them, and I then re-test and re-review.

But if that quick agreement is not forthcoming, may I ask you please
to hold back, and resend based on top of Alex's next posting?

Thanks,
Hugh
