patch 96990a4ae979df9e235d01097d6175759331e88c in mainline.

Quicklists calculates the size of the quicklists based on the number of
free pages.  This must be the number of free pages that can be allocated
with GFP_KERNEL.  node_page_state() includes the pages in ZONE_HIGHMEM and
ZONE_MOVABLE which may lead the quicklists to become too large causing OOM.

   http://marc.info/?l=linux-mmm=119973653803451w=2 should be added to

  Indeed that is the right fix.

Greg, could we get that one added? We are already shipping it as our
users have run into the OOM problem with 2.6.22.16 without this patch.

patch 421d99193537a6522aac2148286f08792167d5fd in mainline.

This ensures that the quicklists are drained. Otherwise draining may only
occur when the processor reaches an idle state.

Fixes fatal leakage of pgd_t's on 2.6.22 and later.

 What is the right fix for the OOM issues with 2.6.22? Perhaps
 http://marc.info/?l=linux-mmm=119973653803451w=2 should be added to
 the queue in its place?  The OOM issue in 2.6.22 is real, and should be
 addressed.

Indeed that is the right fix.

Greg, could we get that one added? We are already shipping it as our
users have run into the OOM problem with 2.6.22.16 without this patch.
