This patchset is based on next-20120210

I am seeing an improvement of about 7% in throughput in a workload where
I am doing parallel reading of files that are mmaped. The contention on
lru_lock used to be 13% in the cpu profile on the __pagevec_lru_add code
path. Now lock contention on this path drops to about 0.6%.  I have 40
hyper-threaded enabled cpu cores running 80 mmaped file reading
processes.

So initial testing of this patch set looks encouraging.

That's great!
