Changes
-------
Added:
 +mm-highmem_fix_background_scan.patch
The background scanning when used with a very small amount of highmem (eg 1GB) 
was continually clearing out page cache inappropriately. This patch corrects 
it by not background scanning if highmem is below watermarks.

 +sched-staircase13.4_13.5.patch
Increase rr intervals to 6ms for slightly better cache utilisation while still 
staying below human perceptible jitter levels.

 +nfs-fix_build.patch
The 2.6.15.5 stable patch includes a build error; this fixes it.


Modified:
 -mm-swap_prefetch-19.patch
 +mm-swap_prefetch-28.patch
Update to the latest prefetch as included in 2.6.15-rc5-mm1

 -2.6.15-dynticks-060101.patch
 +2.6.15-dynticks-060227.patch
