hm, this appears to be identical to

mm-compaction-abort-compaction-loop-if-lock-is-contended-or-run-too-long.patch
mm-compaction-abort-compaction-loop-if-lock-is-contended-or-run-too-long-fix.patch
mm-compaction-abort-compaction-loop-if-lock-is-contended-or-run-too-long-fix-2.patch

so I simply omitted patches 2, 3 and 4.
