Subject: [PATCH] Allow migration of mlocked pages
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc1~1064
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e6a1530d692d6a60cdf15dfbcfea07f5324d7b9f;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] Allow migration of mlocked pages

Hugh clarified the role of VM_LOCKED.  So we can now implement page
migration for mlocked pages.

Allow the migration of mlocked pages.  This means that try_to_unmap must
unmap mlocked pages in the migration case.
