Subject: Re: [RFC 00/21] Generic show_mem()

Hi,

most of the feedback I got now was about information displaying that I
allegedly have simply dropped.  This was only true in one case where I
missed the quicklist cache, the other droppings were redundant
information (already displayed in show_free_areas() for example).

Geert suggested that I should boil down show_mem() first for each arch
and then unify it but I would prefer unifying it first and listing
removed redundancy in the changelog of every arch-specific removal. Any
objections on this?
