The patch titled Subject: mm: move max_map_count bits into mm.h has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-move-max_map_count-bits-into-mmh.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-move-max_map_count-bits-into-mmh.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-move-max_map_count-bits-into-mmh.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: move max_map_count bits into mm.h max_map_count sysctl unrelated to scheduler. Move its bits from include/linux/sched/sysctl.h to include/linux/mm.h.
