Re: [RFC V3 PATCH 00/25] memory,numa: introduce MOVABLE-dedicatednode and online_movable for hotplug

[Yasuaki Ishimatsu]

Hi Lai,

Sorry for late reply.
I'm trying to apply your patchset into linux-3.6-rc3.
But I failed to apply them.
What is the based kernel that can apply your patch?

Thanks,
Yasuaki Ishimatsu
