BTW, this patch has conflict with the latest mm-unstable. You might
need to refresh it.

I do not see the delta = -1 usage case here. Maybe merge the patch
with the follow up patch that uses the delta = -1?
Does delta only make sense as 1 and -1?

This patch doesn't seem straightly necessary to me.
