So far KSM can only be enabled by calling madvise for memory regions. To

Review on this series has been a bit thin.  Are we OK with moving this
into mm-stable for the next merge window?

I still want to review (traveling this week), but I also don't want to block this forever.

I think I didn't get a reply from Stefan to my question [1] yet (only some comments from Johannes). I would still be interested in the variance of pages we end up de-duplicating for processes.

The 20% statement in the cover letter is rather useless and possibly misleading if no details about the actual workload are shared.

Maybe Hugh has some comments as well (most probably he's also busy).
