Lovely.  From this we can deduce that nobody has run remap_file_pages() since
2.6.23-rc1 and that nobody (including the developer who made that change) ran it
while that change was in -mm.

I'm surprise that LTP doesn't have any remap_file_pages() tests.

Have you runtime tested this change?

Thanks.
