Thanks, What's the rough ETA for all the subpage-blocksize prerequisities? We've agreed at LSF to postpone any major refactoring and cleanups until the patchset lands but with more dependencies I think the current subpage patches would need to be rewritten from scratch anyway. Delaying for one or two more major releases still sounds doable, but with current pace of changes I'm afraid that's unrealistic and will just block other work. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
