#   [NETFILTER]: Reduce netfilter memory use on MP systems
#   
#   On kernels compiled with a big NR_CPUS netfilter rules would 
#   eat a lot of memory because all counters would be duplicated
#   for all NR_CPUs CPUs.  With NR_CPUS=256 this would add up
#   to many MBs of memory.
#   
#   This patch only allocates enough memory for the possible CPUs,
#   which is usually a much smaller number than NR_CPUS.
#   
#   This allows loading of bigger rule sets on 64bit systems.
#   There is still a limit because someone else broke vmalloc to have a 64MB 
#   limit on 64bit systems for single allocations, 129MB on 32bit.
#   It allocates an array of pages with kmalloc and kmalloc has a 128K limit. 
#   To be fixed with a separate patch.
#   
#   64bit systems were hurt worst because they tend to have big NR_CPUS
#   and the counters need more memory there, and the vmalloc limit is lower.
#   But it will raise the limits even on 32bit. 
#   
#   And in general it saves a lot of memory.
#   
#   Tested only on a small dual CPU box.
