I'm building all my kernels with the memory controller enabled now, as it hits areas that I'm playing in. I wanted to give you a heads up that vmscan.c doesn't build with CONTAINER_MEM_CONT configured with your patches. I won't get to this until tomorrow. Since you're a few hours ahead of me, you might want to take a look. No worries, if you don't get a chance...
