I continue to think this is the right thing to do, and the series
looks good to me.

I'd love for it to get more testing, but realistically I suspect that
being in linux-next will be the right thing.

I've been assuming this will go through Andrew. He's not explicitly
cc'd, though (although maybe he does read all of linux-mm and has seen
this several times as a result).
