The only reason this isn't merged into one, is that this requires non obvious (not difficult though) to the core VM code. I wanted to keep an obviously safe approach for 2.6.26. The other conventions are only needed by XPMEM and XPMEM can't work without all other patches anyway. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
