It would be quite nice for folks to make equivalent changes here that are being made on the other platforms. Just take your best shot and we'll deal with the bits if it breaks. If you dont understand something, by all means ask though. The main proviso is the heavy voodoo in the kernel stack stuff. We cannot (yet) use the same basic allocation strategy as on the other platforms. The use of contigmalloc is a serious cop-out that needs to be fixed. (The explanation is long and painful, but I'd be happy to tell if anybody wants to know why.)
