The patch that worked (on top of -rc7) was Johannes Weiner's
mm: vmscan: fix endless loop in kswapd balancing
that added the zone_balanced() function to mm/vmscan.c:2400.

Okay. Mel, speak up if you object. I also rebased on top of 3.7-rc7,

I'm having an interesting issue with a uniprocessor Pentium 4 machine
locking up overnight. 3.6.5 didn't do that, but 3.7-rc6 is not doing
so well.
It's kind of a funny lockup. Some things work:
- TCP SYN handshake
- Alt-SysRq
And others don't:
- Caps lock
- Shift-PgUp
- Alt-Fn
- Screen
