It's going to take a lot of work to get such extensive reclaim changes
landed.

We need to convince ourselves that these changes are the right way to
fix <whatever they fix>.  We need to review and test the crap out of
them.  The 64-bit-only thing is a concern.  I wonder about whether
we've "fixed" anon pages but didn't do anything about file-backed
mapped pages.  Plus all the other stuff, plus stuff we haven't thought
of yet.

It's huge.
