The patch titled run kswapd_init() earlier has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is run-kswapd_init-earlier.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: run kswapd_init() earlier From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx> We're presently running kswapd_init() during initcalls. But it initialises total_memory, and if we don't do that, page reclaim will get a divide-by-zero. And sometimes we can accidentally run page reclaim early in boot.
