Only in 2.4.23aa1: 00_readahead-last-page-1 Make sure to read the last page of a file via readahead if possible, otherwise we could send two synchronous requests down to the fs instead of a single one. Fix from Chuck Lever. Only in 2.4.23aa1: 05_vm_00_anon-lru-race-better-fix-1 Serialize inserction in swapcache with the pagemap_lru_lock spinlock, to avoid having to use a flood of atomic ops (this benefits especially non x86 archs, for x86 if the cacheline is in l1 it's not a big cost). pagecache operations are unaffected this way.

The new version pretents to change the API for munmap in the f_ops, that's too invasive for 2.4 IMHO. Only in 2.4.23pre6aa3: 90_ext3-commit-interval-5 Obsoleted by the laptop mode (I hope it's "fully" obsoleted ;). Only in 2.4.23pre6aa3: 9986_elevator-merge-fast-path-2 Dropped, seems to have a race of some sort (triggers on some ia64).
