Yup, Dave Hansen changed page_walk interface recently.
thus, his and ours patch is conflicted ;)
below patch is just nit cleanups.
===========================================
From: Lee Schermerhorn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This [freeing of mlocked pages] also occurs in unpatched 26-rc5-mm3.
Fixed by the following:
PATCH: fix munlock page table walk - now requires 'mm'
Against 2.6.26-rc5-mm3.
Incremental fix for: mlock-mlocked-pages-are-unevictable-fix.patch
Initialize the 'mm' member of the mm_walk structure, else the
page table walk doesn't occur, and mlocked pages will not be
munlocked. This is visible in the vmstats:
noreclaim_pgs_munlocked - should equal noreclaim_pgs_mlocked
less (nr_mlock + noreclaim_pgs_cleared), but is always zero
[munlock_vma_page() never called]
noreclaim_pgs_mlockfreed - should be zero [for debug only],
but == noreclaim_pgs_mlocked - (nr_mlock + noreclaim_pgs_cleared)
