Hi all, I have more 2.5isms for the list. ./fs/binfmt_elf.c:

#ifdef CONFIG_X86_HT
/*
* In some cases (e.g. Hyper-Threading), we want to avoid L1
* evictions by the processes running on the same package. One
* thing we can do is to shuffle the initial stack for them.
*
* The conditionals here are unneeded, but kept in to make the
* code behaviour the same as pre change unless we have
* hyperthreaded processors. This should be cleaned up
* before 2.6
*/

if (smp_num_siblings > 1)
STACK_ALLOC(p, ((current->pid % 64) << 7));
#endif

Happy y2k5,
Justin
