Ok - the vm-stats bits are the last larger item remaining that
I've seen - could you please redo any of your changes on top of
the latest tip:numa/core tree, to make them easier for me to
pick up?

Your tree is slowly becoming a rebase of tip:numa/core and that
will certainly cause problems.

I'll backmerge any delta patches and rebase as necessary - but
please do them as deltas on top of tip:numa/core to make things
reviewable and easier to merge:

Thanks!
