Rohit Seth 8ad4b1fb82 [PATCH] Make high and batch sizes of per_cpu_pagelists configurable
As recently there has been lot of traffic on the right values for batch and
high water marks for per_cpu_pagelists.  This patch makes these two
variables configurable through /proc interface.

A new tunable /proc/sys/vm/percpu_pagelist_fraction is added.  This entry
controls the fraction of pages at most in each zone that are allocated for
each per cpu page list.  The min value for this is 8.  It means that we
don't allow more than 1/8th of pages in each zone to be allocated in any
single per_cpu_pagelist.

The batch value of each per cpu pagelist is also updated as a result.  It
is set to pcp->high/4.  The upper limit of batch is (PAGE_SHIFT * 8)

The Cyclades-Z must have firmware loaded onto the card before it will
operate.  This operation should be performed during system startup,

The firmware, loader program and the latest device driver code are
available from Cyclades at
    ftp://ftp.cyclades.com/pub/cyclades/cyclades-z/linux/
