finding:
The memory regions blueprint was based on the memory regions patches from IBM. I completed testing of the first version of the patchset which IBM submitted. But there was no reduction in power consumed since the Exynos4 DDR controller is capable of detecting no-activity and moving DDR banks into low power mode. After that, there were no updates posted for the memory regions patchset and I have been only working on device tree support for Exynos.

From the tests that I did, I feel the real benefit of memory regions will be realized when pages of under utlized memory regions are moved / compacted with pages of other memory regions. But doing that is time consuming since portions of memory management subsystem might have to be changed.
