Recap: Mike Waychison posted a simple patch to make Max_anon bit array
(NFS mounts etc.) use exactly one page.

Wouldn't it be saner to have a sysctl to adjust that?  From 1 page to
2^20/(PAGE_SIZE * CHAR_BIT) pages?  Perhaps just in page-sized increments?

This would be a simple patch... But maybe it's not 'stabilization' for
2.6.0.

Maybe the simple version in 2.6.0 and the right version in 2.6.1?

Linus?
