But that didn't stop all the subsystem maintainers from going nuts, with

There is a lingering corruption in sata_mv that took me several days to
narrow down... the failure to mask off the lower 16 bits of the S/G
length was leading to corruption, because this stomped on other
important bits in that S/G entry.
This should fix it (stable aka 2.6.23.1 needs this too):

Could we just call kmem_cache_shrink? It will do the shrink on every node

This is to make kmem_cache_nodes of all SLUBs for new node when
memory-hotadd is called. This fixes panic due to access NULL pointer at
discard_slab() after memory hot-add.
If pages on the new node available, slub can use it before making
new kmem_cache_nodes. So, this callback should be called

Hello.
This patch set is to rearrange event notifier for memory hotplug,
because the old notifier has some defects. For example, there is no
information like new memory's pfn and # of pages for callback functions.
Fortunately, nothing uses this notifier so far, there is no impact by
this change.
Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE in the coredump code which
allows for more flexibility in the note type for the state of 'extended
floating point' implementations in coredumps. New note types can now be
added with an appropriate #define.
This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be
