OK, I confirm that I can't seem to break this one.  No hangs visible,
even when loading up the system with firefox, evolution, the usual

You can add my tested-by

Your system still hangs with patches 1 and 2 only?
Yes, but only once in all the testing.  With patches 1 and 2 the hang is
much harder to reproduce, but it still seems to be present if I hit it
hard enough.

Patches 1-2 look reasonable to me. I'm not completely convinced of patch 3, though. Why are we seeing these problems now? This has been in mainline for a long time already. Shouldn't we fix kswapd?
