I already have this one as
x86_64-mm-introduce-used_vectors-bitmap-which-can-be-used-to-reserve-vectors.patch
- part of the firstfloor tree.

Thomas is going through those patches and is getting them merged up - a large
batch went through today.

So I assume he'll me merging this patch via that route, unless he has
decided to skip it for some reason.

Either way, I guess I'll hang onto the firstfloor.org leftovers until each
one has some sort of definite disposition.
