I think I had indicated so before: A brief revision log is expected here,
in particular to aid people having looked at prior versions of a patch.
Whether you also put such a log in the cover letter is up to you, but
there it's not normally going to be patch specific.

"av" is standing for "avail" I guess? If so, I'd prefer if you spelled it out.
Also two of the three comments given on v2 still apply here. Please
address _all_ comments either verbally or by code changes before
sending a new version.

__read_mostly (afaict)
Also the variable seems pointless - this ...

... variable being (non-)zero should suffice as indication.
Otherwise the definition of this variable in this file looks
wrong, as there's no reference to it in here.
