In the process of writing the new VM code I've been looking
through your patch for some ideas and I have some questions.

1) could you explain your shrink_mmap changes?
   why do they work?

2) why are you backing out bugfixes made by Linus and
   other people?  what does your patch gain by that?
   (eg the do_try_to_free_pages stuff)

regards,

Rik
