Hirofumi has been working on just that for the last couple of weeks (his usual attention to detail) and there are still a few days to go on it. We would appreciate it if somebody else does the hammering for a generic version, so we can continue to concentrate on getting the core hooks righ, proving out the corner cases, and proving the benefit through benchmarks :) The next round of Tux3 review patches will be two separate patch series, one for writeback core hooks, and one for page forking core hooks. These will be against Hirofumi's mirror at Github, to keep the kernel.org git tree history clean and unrebased. Regards, Daniel
