ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.65/2.5.65-mm3/ . There is a significnat one-line fix to the CFQ IO scheduler here. It possibly invalidates testing which was previously performed against CFQ. . Added Hugh's new rmap-without-pte_chains-for-anon-pages patches. Mainly for interested parties to test and benchmark at this stage. It seems to be stable, however it is not clear that this passes the benefit-vs-disruption test.
