This set includes acked-by's from Andrew and Peter so it should be OK for all five patches to go upstream through the NFS tree. I split the congestion tracking patch out from the wait-for-PG_private patch as they are conceptually separate. This set continues to perform well in my tests and addresses all issues that have been raised. Thanks a lot, NeilBrown --- NeilBrown (5): SCHED: add some "wait..on_bit...timeout()" interfaces. MM: export page_wakeup functions NFS: avoid deadlocks with loop-back mounted NFS filesystems. NFS: avoid waiting at all in nfs_release_page when congested.
