Nothing much new here except for a fix for the ext3-related memory leak which
Con reported recently.
The main items which remain unmerged from the -mm patch series are now:
- red/black-tree based insertion and sorting for the I/O scheduler.
Jens will be submitting this next week. It's completely stable, and the
patch includes the addition of the I/O scheduler tunables in
/sys/block/hda/iosched/, which is fairly important.
- Code to automatically unplug request queues on the basis of their
occupancy and a timeout.
Jens will be reviewing this soon.
- dcache-RCU.
This was recently updated to fix a rename race. It's quite stable. I'm
not sure where we stand wrt merging it now. Al seems to have disappeared.
- Ingo Oeser's user page walking rework. This appears to be stable,
although I'm not sure what testing it has had apart from a lot of direct-io
testing.
- Quite a lot of misc stuff which I need to go through and either send or
toss.
