These were all fixed but I failed to do a "quilt refresh" .... sigh... The
email issues are also fixed now .... sigh. What a day.

Thanks.

Here is the patch with your changes and a "quilt refresh" ;-)

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduces a new function clear_cold(void *pageaddress, int order) to clear
pages of an arbitrary size with non temporal stores. Cold clearing is typically
faster than hot clearing. Hot clearing is beneficial when the data is to be 
used soon.
(Will also work well with the new hot and cold aware prezeroing daemon)

Use cold clearing for huge pages.

For ia64 also make clear_page uses temporal stores.

Patch needs fixes to work properly on i386 and x86_64.
