Thank you Mel. This looks better now.
Yes we would have moved to mm.h eventually to avoid #if clutter.

Also for PATCH2 function common to memory.c and huge_memory.c would
need the same to handle hugetlb vma as suggested by you.
Working on gathering numbers and PID clear logic now. will post V2 soon.

Thanks
