- A couple of fixes for VM memory reclaim.
- The ia32 EFI code seems to be complete now.
- The recent IO scheduler regressions should be fixed.
- Dropped the runtime-selectable-IO-scheduler patches.
- A number of fixes to the pagecache readahead code should help
seeky workloads such as non-direct-io databases. - Various fixes, mostly minor.
