Just -mm. I think it's only been in one -mm release so far. The rest of sparsemem has been in -mm since early May. I have memory hotplug working on top of the extreme patches as well now, which required a few more tweaks. That kind of tweaking needs to be completed by the time it's submitted to mainline, and it's just not quite there yet. I'm sure it will be soon. -- Dave
