He asked Linus not to merge "mm: page_alloc: exclude unreclaimable allocations from zone fairness policy" but it was too late and this patch is now on top of it. The final thing should have looked like a revert of 73f038b8 ("mm: page_alloc: exclude unreclaimable allocations from zone fairness policy") followed by this renewed version on top. It was Michal Hocko that spotted this. I'm sending this mail so I don't forget about it. If I get the chance before the end of the day I'll send two revised patches unless Johannes beats me to it. -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
