Subject: [PATCH 2/4] x86: arch specific task_struct allocator
Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2008 14:18:17 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081227051816.GC3295@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081227051606.GA3295@localhost.localdomain>
This patch defines x86 specific task_struct allocator.
It is just duplication of generic task-struct allocator for now.
Forthcoming patch will make actual change to it.
