If there is space available, I would like to attend the MM track of LSF/MM
this year. This is a somewhat lame request as I have not proposed a topic,
and my mm contributions this past year have been somewhat limited to finding
and fixing bugs hugetlbfs.

Topics in which I am interested and could contribute:
- Contiguous memory allocation. This seems to be an ongoing feature
request. John Hubbard wants a reliable and efficient method to
obtain provide huge pages. Zi Yan has put out a bunch of code to
support an alternate approach.
- THP and huge pages in general.
- Specific interest in Andrea's NUMA remote THP vs NUMA local non-THP
under MADV_HUGEPAGE proposal.
- Userfaultfd and Peter Xu approach to write protect support.
