Page allocator: get rid of the list of cold pages
We have repeatedly discussed if the cold pages still have a point. There is one way to join the two lists: Use a single list and put the cold pages at the end and the hot pages at the beginning. That way a single list can serve for both types of allocations. The discussion of the RFC for this and Mel's measurements indicate that there may not be too much of a point left to having separate lists for hot and cold pages (see http://marc.info/?t=119492914200001&r=1&w=2).
