The question is, why is that not enough (I haven't looked at these
patches enough to work out if there is anything more they provide).
I think, it just takes trying things out. From reading the code, I think this should work well for the filemap_xip code with no struct page.
Also, we need eliminate nopage() to get rid of the struct page. Unfortunately I don't find time to try this out for now, and on 390 we can live with struct page for the time being. In contrast to the embedded platforms, the mem_mep array gets swapped out to disk by our hypervisor.

so long,
Carsten
