Subject: [patch 4/6] mm: remove atomic
Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2005 18:19:39 +1000	[thread overview]

4/6

OK, these first 4 patches don't have much to do with removing
PageReserved, but I put them in this series because that's how
I have them arranged.


[-- Attachment #2: mm-remove-atomic-bitop.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1223 bytes --]

This bitop does not need to be atomic because it is performed when
there will be no references to the page (ie. the page is being freed).
