Great, this series looks really nice!
Does this solve the problems reported in the "2.6.29 git master and
PAT problems" thread and addressed via an earlier patch of yours:
Subject: [PATCH] x86, PAT: Remove page granularity tracking for vm_insert_pfn maps
i am worried about this particular patch - it looks more like a
workaround than a true realization of a bug.
