The only problem is that currently the lowmem module doesn't exist in
mainline. My guess is that the lowmem module would need quite a bit of
more work before it would be accepted in mainline, if at all. 

It will probably take some time before we get it into mainline, so I
suggest that these patches are meged into linux-omap now.

best regards,

Viktor
