Hi Andrew.
I got failed your scenario in my machine so could you be willing to
test this patch for proving my above scenario?
The patch is just revert patch of 0e093d99[do not sleep on the
congestion queue...] for 2.6.38.6.
I would like to test it for proving my above zone congestion scenario.
I did it based on 2.6.38.6 for your easy apply so you must apply it
cleanly on vanilla v2.6.38.6.
And you have to add !pgdat_balanced and shrink_slab patch.
Thanks, Andrew.
