[PATCH 00/10] MM changes to improve swap-over-NFS support

[NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>]

Hi Andrew,
 these are the non-NFS-specific parts of the swap-over-NFS series that
 I've posted a few times.  I've address all comments, most recently
 style improvements in mm/swap.h.
 Would it be possible for these to land in the next merge window?

Thanks,
NeilBrown
