Freescale IFC controller has been used for mpc8xxx. It will be used
for ARM-based SoC as well. This patch moves the driver to driver/memory
and fix the header file includes.
Also remove module_platform_driver() and instead call
platform_driver_register() from subsys_initcall() to make sure t

Hi,
I encountered the same problem with another device.
If possible, it would be nice to pick Marius's patch for stable

There are chances that MacOSX is affected by a similar issue,

No because people come and start bitching about their dmesg containing
a warning and whether their hardware is b0rked without even reading the

This looks good to me. I guess it will be going in for 3.15 based on the
comments in the coverletter.

Actually, not exactly; simplifying a bit, in the NULL case they do:

The current code in task_numa_placement calculates the difference
between the old and the new value, but also temporarily stores half
of the old value in the per-process variables.
The NUMA balancing code looks at those per-process variables, and

The tracepoint has made it abundantly clear that the naive
implementation of the faults_from code has issues.
Specifically, the garbage collector in some workloads will
access orders of magnitudes more memory than the threads
that do all the active work. This resulted in the n
From: Rik van Riel
Use the active_nodes nodemask to make smarter decisions on NUMA migrations.
In order to maximize performance of workloads that do not fit in one NUMA
node, we want to satisfy the following criteria:
1) keep private memory local to each thread
2) avoid excessive NUMA migration
From: Rik van Riel
Being able to see how the active nodemask changes over time, and why,
can be quite useful.

The faults_from statistics are used to maintain an active_nodes nodemask
per numa_group. This allows us to be smarter about when to do numa migrations.
