2.6.22-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us
know.

------------------

From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com>

patch 421d99193537a6522aac2148286f08792167d5fd in mainline.

This ensures that the quicklists are drained. Otherwise draining may only
occur when the processor reaches an idle state.

Fixes fatal leakage of pgd_t's on 2.6.22 and later.
