Reviewed-by: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Not sure if they should be folded inside -mm before they go upstream, but if they're sent all along it probably doesn't make a difference, it just adds one more handler. In theory we could have differentiated MADV_REMOVE and MADV_DONTNEED in two different events, but I couldn't see any downside in sharing the same event for both and this looks more compact.
