Nick, sorry for not responding earlier.

That's OK.

I agree that it is slight change in behavior from original.  I doubt
though it will impact any one in any negative way (may be for some
higher order allocations if at all). On a little positive side, less
frequent calls to kswapd for some cases and clear up the code a little
bit.


I really don't want a change of behaviour going in with this,
especially not one which I would want to revert anyway. But
don't get hung up with it - when you post your latest patch
I will make a patch for the changes I would like to see for it
and synch things up.

But I really don't want to get stuck here. The pcp traversal and
flushing is where I want to go next.

Sure, hope it goes well!

Nick
