I'm looking at this.. The hmm conflict is easy enough to fix.

But the compile conflict with these two patches in -mm requires some
action from Andrew:

commit 027b9b8fd9ee3be6b7440462102ec03a2d593213
Author: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
Date: Sun Aug 25 11:49:27 2019 +1000

mm: introduce MADV_PAGEOUT

commit f227453a14cadd4727dd159782531d617f257001
Author: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>
Date: Sun Aug 25 11:49:27 2019 +1000

mm: introduce MADV_COLD

Patch series "Introduce MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT", v7.

I'm inclined to suggest you send this series in the 2nd half of the
merge window after this MADV stuff lands for least disruption?

Thanks,
Jason
