Right now I want to concentrate on getting the present -mm queue vaguely

for a few days at the minimum.

This process would be greatly aided by developers testing it out and
sending fixes (or at least, reports) for anything they encounter.

Is this patch a bugfix?

box:/home/akpm> grep ifdef ~/x
zone_ifdef_cleanup_by_renumbering.patch
We can avoid #ifdef for CONFIG_ZONE_xxx to some extent.
+ * You can use this functio for avoiding #ifdef.
+ * #ifdef OCNFIG_ZONE_DMA
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA
-#ifdef CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM
-#ifdef CONFIG_HIGHMEM

ooh, me like.
