Subject: [PATCH 0/3] mm: dirty/accessed pte optimisations

Here are some patches that didn't get much comment last time. It
looks like x86 might benefit too though, so that might get people
interested. 

I improved changelogs and added some comments, but no real logic
changes.

I hope I didn't get the x86 numbers wrong, they're more significant
than I expected so it could quite well be a problem with my test
(corrections welcome). Any data from other archs would be interesting
too.

Andrew perhaps if there aren't objections these could go in mm for
a while. 

Thanks,
Nick
