[folded-merged] mm-page_alloc-introduce-vmpercpu_pagelist_high_fraction-fix.patch removed from -mm tree

[akpm]

The patch titled
     Subject: mm/page_alloc: introduce vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction -fix
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-page_alloc-introduce-vmpercpu_pagelist_high_fraction-fix.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into mm-page_alloc-introduce-vmpercpu_pagelist_high_fraction.patch

------------------------------------------------------
From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net>
Subject: mm/page_alloc: introduce vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction -fix

Vlastimil Babka pointed out that the documentation for
vm.percpu_pagelist_high_fraction is potentially misleading so fix it.

This is a fix to the mmotm patch
mm-page_alloc-introduce-vmpercpu_pagelist_high_fraction.patch

 percpu_pagelist_high_fraction
 =============================
 
-This is the fraction of pages in each zone that are allocated for each
-per cpu page list.  The min value for this is 8.  It means that we do
-not allow more than 1/8th of pages in each zone to be allocated in any
-single per_cpu_pagelist.  This entry only changes the value of hot per
-cpu pagelists. User can specify a number like 100 to allocate 1/100th
-of each zone to each per cpu page list.
+This is the fraction of pages in each zone that are can be stored to

-The batch value of each per cpu pagelist remains the same regardless of the
-value of the high fraction so allocation latencies are unaffected.

 The initial value is zero. Kernel uses this value to set the high pcp->high
 mark based on the low watermark for the zone and the number of local
