This patch series appears to be a resend of stuff I already have.

Given the various concerns which were voiced during review of
mm-compaction-compact-unevictable-pages.patch and the uncertainty of
the overall usefulness of the feature, I'm inclined to drop

mm-compaction-compact-unevictable-pages.patch
mm-compaction-compact-unevictable-pages-checkpatch-fixes.patch
mm-compaction-accounting-fix.patch

for now, OK?
