One of the patches I have pending ignores same_page by just using the write_count as a byte count instead of a segment count. It's currently mixed into this patch but needs to be separated. http://git.infradead.org/users/willy/pagecache.git/commitdiff/0186d1dde949a458584c56b706fa8dfd252466ff (another patch does the same thing to the read count).
