Great!

I didn't get through all the feedback and respond today but I will
during next week, get it retested and reposted. Thanks a lot.

Yep, that's going to be entertaining.  I had structured this so it could
go through multiple trees but it's not perfect. If I switch patches 14
(slab-related) and 15 (network related), then it becomes

Patch 1 gets dropped after the next merge window as it'll be in mainline anyway
Patch 2-3 goes through Pekka's sl*b tree
Patch 4-7 goes through akpm
Patch 8-14 goes through linux-net
Patch 15-17 goes through akpm

That sort of multiple staging is messy though and correctness would depend
on what order linux-next pulls trees from. I think I should be able to
move 15-17 before linux-net which might simplify things a little although
that would be a bit odd from a bisection perspective.

akpm's tree or yours but that probably will cause merge difficulties.

Any recommendations?
