[PATCH 09/33] mm: system wide ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK

From: Peter Zijlstra <hidden>
Date: 2007-10-30 16:26:44
Also in: linux-mm, lkml

Change ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK page allocation such that the reserves are system
wide - which they are per setup_per_zone_pages_min(), when we scrape the
barrel, do it properly.
