While I currently have access to the machines needed to cross-compile, I do not have any automated mechanism setup for anti-fragmentation yet so I only test ppc64 and x86.

However, to be clear, the patches I am working on are for anti-fragmentation which will be of benefit to memory hotplug and for huge tlb. For the memory hotplug patches and the -mhp tree, Dave Hansen is the man to talk to.
