Yeah, it's a good idea!

in_interrupt() check is very cheap (like checking some bits in a per-cpu variable),
so I don't think there will be any measurable difference. So I suggest to implement
it later as an enhancement on top (maybe in the next merge window), to avoid an another
delay. Otherwise I'll need to send a patch to mm@, wait for reviews and an inclusion
into the mm tree, etc). Does it work for you?

Thanks!
