- mm-set-per-cpu-pages-lower-threshold-to-zero.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm@osdl.org]

The patch titled

     mm: set per-cpu-pages lower threshold to zero

has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename is

     mm-set-per-cpu-pages-lower-threshold-to-zero.patch

This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has already been merged into a subsystem tree
or into Linus's tree


From: "Seth, Rohit" <rohit.seth@intel.com>

Set the low water mark for hot pages in pcp to zero.

(akpm: for the life of me I cannot remember why we created pcp->low.  Neither
can Martin and the changelog is silent.  Maybe it was just a brainfart, but I
have this feeling that there was a reason.  If not, we should remove the
fields completely.  We'll see.)
