This patch was added to -mm tree the 14 Dec 2006 (see 
http://www.mail-archive.com/mm-commits@vger.kernel.org/msg05338.html).

It was then dropped from -mm tree the 05 Mar 2007 (see 
http://www.mail-archive.com/mm-commits@vger.kernel.org/msg10818.html), 
with this comment:
	"This patch was dropped because it is obsolete"

No idea why it was obsolete. Does somebody know ?
