Hi Matthew,

Thanks for response!

As to the local_irq_disable(), we could use local_irq_save(), but Hugh Dickin
suggest it's not necessary here. Also there are still much local_irq_disable()
in code. Hope it would be a big trouble for only one extra.

yes, The lru_lock comments is a bit early to remove, that should do in next 
TestClearPageLRU part. but since it would be changed soon. It won't be a critical
thing. Anyway I can change it to back in next version.

Thanks
Alex
