I think we still don't use the ARCH_FREE_PTE_NR of 5350 as the caching value for the mmu_gathers structure, instead fallback to using 506 due to some typo errors in the code. Found this link in the archives. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0509.1/1821.html I don't think anything has been done on this yet (looked at 2.6.23). Do let me know if its only a typo that needs a fix, or we are still waiting for some other other changes to come into effect.
