It was you the author of that change? I've read of it in some of the -mm
announcement that I no more find. I even thought I dreamt it, but I found
this sentence in the 2.6.1-mm1 announcement:
Dropped the remap_file_pages() and prefault work - it is suspected of causing
stability problems.
That work is not directly related to UML, but I somewhere (from you?) read
about the idea of using that to solve the need for UML to mmap pages one at a
time. And that seems meaningful enough to me.
I would like to discuss it here, because maybe there could be other ways to
solve it (I had one idea, but it is probably bad - so for now I don't post
it).
