I will think about a solution. Is there any reason why (some?) MIPS arches use __node_data rather than node_data as most other architectures? Would it be acceptable to do the renaming? It would help to cover the above compilation problem because arch_refresh_nodedata could keep using node_data directly. Thanks! -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs
