This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.12.30 release.
There are 96 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one.  If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.

This one is special. First, it is rounded (30). Second, most of the
patches are performance improvements. They are coming from SUSE
Enterprise Linux and all are backed by proper testing and performance
measurements. All this patchset was prepared and sent by Mel Gorman
with a support of other patchers from SUSE. Thanks to all of them.

As this is special, I am gicing a whole week for responses. So
responses should be made by Wed Oct  8 09:12:02 CEST 2014.  Anything
received after that time might be too late.

The whole patch series can be found in one patch at:
	http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jirislaby/stable-review/patch-3.12.30-rc1.xz
and the diffstat can be found below.

thanks,
