Hi there ...

Re-verification from testers that these patches really do fix their
problems would be appreciated. Even if hangs disappear, please confirm
that the values for nr_isolated_anon and nr_isolated_file in *both*
/proc/zoneinfo and /proc/vmstat are sensible (i.e. usually zero).
I applied these patches to 2.6.38.8 and it run for nearly a month
without any problems. Even Though I did not check nr_isolated_*.
As (at least) patch3 made it into 2.6.39.3 I did not apply the
others any more. And it occurred again this morning:
I assume you mean it occured again on 2.6.39.3 and so have submitted
them to -stable for 2.6.39.x. You're cc'd so you should hear when or if
they get picked up.

Thanks for testing.
