With some tweaks (such as adding a struct vm_region_head which contains the spinlock, as well as the start/end and list) we essentially end up with a generic memory region allocator suitable for vmalloc, ioremap, module stuff, and so forth. If anyone's interested in that, I'll sort out those tweaks. -- Russell King Linux kernel 2.6 ARM Linux - http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/ maintainer of: 2.6 Serial core - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
