Patch for swap usage of high memory
This patch fixes the problem where pages allocated for swap space reads
will not be allocated from high memory.
Rik, could you please forward this to the kernel mailing list? I am
temporarily unable to reach it directly due to ECN problems.
Thanks,
Dave McCracken
