In the process of writing the new VM code I've been looking
through your patch for some ideas and I have some questions.

1) could you explain your shrink_mmap changes?
why do they work?

2) why are you backing out bugfixes made by Linus and
other people? what does your patch gain by that?
(eg the do_try_to_free_pages stuff)

regards,

Rik
