Search for the word "soap" in ChangeLog-2.6.6 and you'll find a very long and informative essay by akpm. arch/arm26/machine/small_page.c has been converted to use page->lru instead in 2.6.6, is that not working for you? Or is there somewhere else that needs changing? I notice the comment in small_page.c says you're using page->next_hash and pprev_hash - they went away long ago! Hugh
