Subject: [1/3] dynamically allocate IRQ stacks
Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2007 16:33:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070430233309.GH26598@holomorphy.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070430232351.GG26598@holomorphy.com>

Dynamically allocate IRQ stacks in order to conserve memory when using
IRQ stacks. cpu_possible_map is not now initialized in such a manner as
to provide a meaningful indication of how many CPU's might be in the
system, and features to appear in the sequel also require indirection,
so they themselves are not allocatable as per_cpu variables, but rather
only pointers to them.
