that's true for only one patch, the others are pretty orthogonal after
Andrew helped splitting them:


05_vm_03_vm_tunables-4
05_vm_05_zone_accounting-2
05_vm_06_swap_out-3
05_vm_07_local_pages-4
05_vm_08_try_to_free_pages_nozone-4
05_vm_09_misc_junk-3
05_vm_10_read_write_tweaks-3
05_vm_13_activate_page_cleanup-1
05_vm_15_active_page_swapout-1
05_vm_16_active_free_zone_bhs-1
05_vm_17_rest-10
05_vm_18_buffer-page-uptodate-1
05_vm_20_cleanups-3
05_vm_21_rt-alloc-1
05_vm_22_vm-anon-lru-1
05_vm_23_per-cpu-pages-3
05_vm_24_accessed-ipi-only-smp-1
05_vm_25_try_to_free_buffers-invariant-1

The "mess" one is only 05_vm_17_rest-10 as far as I can tell.
