Euhm, right :-) long comes naturaly when I think about quantities op
pages. The adjust_memalloc_reserve() argument is an increment, a delta;
perhaps I should change that to long.

Maybe, but having 16 TB of reserved memory seems plenty for a while.

Oh, for sure, but since it doesn't really matter all that much, I'd
rather go for proper.

Having them separate would allow ajust_memalloc_reserve() to be used by
other callers too (would need some extra locking).

True, but currently memalloc_reserve isn't used in a sensible way,
or I'm missing something.

Well, I'm somewhat reluctant to stick network related code into mm/, it
seems well separated now.
