Report is linked here https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/21/202

I ended up cancelling the remaining tests and restarted with

1. schednuma + patches posted since so that works out as
   tip/sched/core from the time I last pulled
   patches as posted on the list
   patches posted since which are
     x86/vsyscall: Add Kconfig option to use native vsyscalls, switch to it
     mm/migration: Improve migrate_misplaced_page()
     mm, numa: Turn 4K pte NUMA faults into effective hugepage ones
     x86/mm: Don't flush the TLB on #WP pmd fixups

2. autonuma + native THP support porte by Hugh

3. balancenuma with a missing THP migration bit for memcg

If all goes according to plan it'll do a pair of runs -- one with oprofile
and one without in case there are profile-related questions. Hopefully
they'll be collected correctly and usable.  I'm not using perf simply
because I do not have the necessary automation in place. I had kept oprofile
automation in place when it was important that I could run identical tests
on older kernels.

I did not just pull the tip tree for schednuma because it would not be a
like-like comparison with the other trees.
