Actually - definitely wait for the next version.

Kill the version you have of this patch.

I just realized that "memory_reclaim_rate" was a bogus
name for this feature. The users, batch managers, don't
give a dang that its hooked into some direct reclaim
point in the kernel.

They just want a decent measure of memory pressure in
a cpuset.

So I am going to rename the flag, to "memory_pressure".

Kill the current 'memory reclaim rate' patch. I will
resend in perhaps an hour, under this new name.
