Message-Id: <20110407172104.1F8B7329@kernel>

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rename alloc_pages_exact()
alloc_pages_exact() returns a virtual address. But, alloc_pages() returns
a 'struct page *'. That makes for very confused kernel hackers.
__get_free_pages(), on the other hand, returns virtual addresses. That
makes alloc_pages_exact() a much closer match to __get_free_pages(), so
rename it to get_free_pages_exact().
Note that alloc_pages_exact()'s partner, free_pages_exact() already
matches free_pages(), so we do not have to touch the free side of things.
