323aca6c0b [PATCH] vmscan: pageout(): remove unneeded test
)



We only call pageout() for dirty pages, so this test is redundant.

79befd0c08 [PATCH] oom-killer disable for iscsi/lvm2/multipath userland critical sections
iscsi/lvm2/multipath needs guaranteed protection from the oom-killer, so
make the magical value of -17 in /proc/<pid>/oom_adj defeat the oom-killer
altogether.

(akpm: we still need to document oom_adj and friends in
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt!)

d345734267 [PATCH] filemap_getpage can block when MAP_NONBLOCK specified
We will return NULL from filemap_getpage when a page does not exist in the
page cache and MAP_NONBLOCK is specified, here:

	page = find_get_page(mapping, pgoff);
	if (!page) {
		if (nonblock)
			return NULL;
		goto no_cached_page;
	}

But we forget to do so when the page in the cache is not uptodate.  The
following could result in a blocking call:

	/*
	 * Ok, found a page in the page cache, now we need to check
	 * that it's up-to-date.
	 */
	if (!PageUptodate(page))
		goto page_not_uptodate;

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
