Some of those are well removed in this version, but I still show some. E.g., nr_contexts field. Also, this resulted in two big patches. I'd also appreciate if you can separate changes into smaller ones of logical single change. For example, changes for lru_sort.c, reclaim.c, and sysfs.c on first patch could be much smaller in my opinion. Traceevent change can also be separated from patch 2. Some of multi-context support seems mixed in patch 1. I'd suggest below patches flow. Patch 1: Introduce new struct and control functions for the struct. Don't really use the struct and the functions. Patch 2: Modify core.c to use the struct and implement multiple contexts support. Minimize changes to core.c users. Just keep those work as before. Don't implement multi contexts support on sysfs.c or trace events at this point. Patch 3: Update sysfs.c to support the multiple contexts. Patch 4: Update trace events to better support it. > - Added/Fixed comments about data structures/functions Also, you don't need to put version history under '---' marker if it is a cover letter.
