Hi Seth -- Related, are you now comfortable with abandoning "zcache1" and moving "zcache2" (now in drivers/staging/ramster in 3.7) to become the one-and-only in-tree drivers/staging/zcache (with ramster as a subdirectory and build option)? It would be nice to get rid of that artificial and confusing distinction as soon as possible, especially if, due to zswap, you have no plans to continue to maintain/enhance/promote zcache1 anymore. If so, I'll work with Konrad to generate a drivers/staging patch for Greg (post-window :-). Thanks, Dan
