What I meant was: iirc he first had a "very complex" patchkit in -mm* (the one with multiple predictors working together); then that got then replaced with a simpler easier to review one and now he's feeding the stuff from the complex one piece by piece back. Just pointed out that the newer stuff was likely already in -mm* for some time, just before one of the simplifications. But I guess more testing cannot hurt anyways. Anyways it's good we're finally making forward progress on this. It has the potential for real nice performance gains. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
