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

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.
