Bug Description

SRU Justification

    Impact:
       The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar
       in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to
       demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream
       by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally
       backported form of that patch. The 3.2.25 upstream stable
       patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
       kernel as well.

       git://git.kernel.org/

    TEST CASE: TBD

       The following patches are in the 3.2.25 stable release:

mm: reduce the amount of work done when updating min_free_kbytes
mm: compaction: allow compaction to isolate dirty pages
mm: compaction: determine if dirty pages can be migrated without blocking within ->migratepage
mm: page allocator: do not call direct reclaim for THP allocations while compaction is deferred
mm: compaction: make isolate_lru_page() filter-aware again
mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compaction
mm: vmscan: when reclaiming for compaction, ensure there are sufficient free pages available
mm: vmscan: do not OOM if aborting reclaim to start compaction
mm: vmscan: check if reclaim should really abort even if compaction_ready() is true for one zone
vmscan: promote shared file mapped pages
vmscan: activate executable pages after first usage
mm/vmscan.c: consider swap space when deciding whether to continue reclaim
mm: test PageSwapBacked in lumpy reclaim
mm: vmscan: convert global reclaim to per-memcg LRU lists
