It would probably would be a good idea to make sure that we check to add some sanity checking code if it isn't there already that PG_lazyfree isn't already set when try to set PG_lazyfree (just in case there is a bug in the future which causes the should-never-happen case of trying lazy free a PageBooked page). - Ted - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
