Subject: [S390] Don't use small stacks when lockdep is used.
Date: Mon, 4 Dec 2006 15:57:35 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061204145735.GH32059@skybase> (raw)

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>

[S390] Don't use small stacks when lockdep is used.

The lock dependency validator adds a bunch of extra stack frames to
the stack, which can cause stack overflows. Especially seen on 31 bit
where the small stack is only 4k.

 	  option the kernel will use a smaller kernel stack size. For 31 bit
