The patch that we had in mm for the removal of the cold page queue was merged.
However, there were 3 more pages that I think are necessary to complete
the work. Mel's testing indicated that the patch in mm is inferior to simply
removing the hot cold distinction in the VM altogether
(see http://marc.info/?t=119507025400001&r=1&w=2).

These 3 patches get rid of cold page handling in the VM.
