And it can conflict with https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/470311/
I am not sure Andrew accept it easily although many mm guys already acked and reviewed it.
So I hope patch ordering is following as after mmotm release

1. https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/11/10 and https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/11/65
2. your patch
3. https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/470311/

If you have a problem, please let me know it.
