The patch also adds a kernel command line option.  That should be
mentioned in the patch description and documented in
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.  Also, I'd like you to choose a
better name for the kernel command line option than "cmma", which is
completely opaque to me -- it doesn't seem to be the name or even the
initials of anything in the patch.  Presumably it's somehow related to
CMO, but just how is not at all clear.

Paul.
