It may be better though to use the new mapping_setup() function instead?

Would make sense to do both together, perhaps move them to a swapper_space_init() in swap_state.c, saving his #ifdef too. I suggest leave such cleanups until one or the other is mainlined.

I have updated the largeblock git tree with your patches and a new revision of the mmap patches. Still working on it. Fallback in the block layer is not yet working. I probably need to look at Nick's patches a bit. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
