Hmm, it may be better to post this patch as independent one.

I'm not familiar with this area...but try review ;)

Hmm, in original placement, sysctl_tcp_mem[] was on __read_mostly
area. Doesn't this placement cause many cache invalidations ?

I'm not sure but...why defined as 'long'  ?



BTW, when I grep,

tcp_input.c:        atomic_long_read(&tcp_memory_allocated) < sysctl_tcp_mem[0])
tcp_input.c:    if (atomic_long_read(&tcp_memory_allocated) >= sysctl_tcp_mem[0])

Don't you need to change this ?



Thanks,
