Minchan:
Here is the stack trace after applying your patch. We used
trace_printk instead since the printk doesn't give me the message. The
ret == 4 , so looks like we are failing at the check if
(PageUnevictable(page))
kernel is based on tag: mmotm-2011-04-14-15-08 plus my the two memcg
patches in the thread, and also the debugging patch.
