Oh the BITS_PER_LONG batching?


Yes.

my patch. In fact, as I said in a followup it is likely to work better
than with David's change to free batched pages as order-0, because I
reverted back to freeing them as higher order pages.


Ok. Then I doubt anybody will complain. I'm still wondering if some of the other ugliness was due to some simulator strangeness issues, but maybe

I'm a little unsure. That's what I suspected when I saw David's
changeset was part of an FRV: prefixed batch but wasn't directly
related to FRV code. (ie. normally such a patch would be mm: or
bootmem:)
