Is an "MCD tag" the same thing as a "ADI version tag"? The thing that confused me here is that we're taking an entire page of "ADI version tags" and stuffing them into a swap pte (in set_swp_pte_at()). Do we somehow have enough space in a swap pte on sparc to fit PAGE_SIZE/64 "ADI version tag"s in there? -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
