Did this happen?


I'm still trying to get this five month old patchset unstuck :(.  The
review status is: 

[1/3] mm, memcg: proportional memory.{low,min} reclaim
Acked-by: Johannes
Reviewed-by: Roman

[2/3] mm, memcg: make memory.emin the baseline for utilisation determination
Acked-by: Johannes

[3/3] mm, memcg: make scan aggression always exclude protection
Reviewed-by: Roman


I do have a note here that mhocko intended to take a closer look but I
don't recall whether that happened.

I could

a) say what the hell and merge them or
b) sit on them for another cycle or
c) drop them and ask Chris for a resend so we can start again.
