[PATCH] cpuset memory spread page cache implementation and hooks
Change the page cache allocation calls to support cpuset memory spreading. See the previous patch, cpuset_mem_spread, for an explanation of cpuset memory spreading. On systems without cpusets configured in the kernel, this is no change. On systems with cpusets configured in the kernel, but the "memory_spread" cpuset option not enabled for the current tasks cpuset, this adds a call to a cpuset routine and failed bit test of the processor state flag PF_SPREAD_PAGE. On tasks in cpusets with "memory_spread" enabled, this adds a call to a cpuset routine that computes which of the tasks mems_allowed nodes should be preferred for this allocation. If memory spreading applies to a particular allocation, then any other NUMA mempolicy does not apply.
