Remove artificial maximum 256 loop device that can be created due to a
legacy device number limit. Searching through lkml archive, there are
several instances where users complained about the artificial limit
that the loop driver impose. There is no reason to have such limit.

You answered it yourself. Linux does not have a C++ runtime.
It is possible to use a very limited set of C++

Hi Venki,
I have a dual-Woodcrest machine here with _PSD tables that specify that
cpufreq coordination between cores is done in hardware with
DOMAIN_COORD_TYPE_HW_ALL. On this particular machine, CPU 0 and CPU 2
are on the same package, and it looks like they have to be at the same

Hmm. I've reproduced these problems with vanilla 2.6.21-rc5, so the

turns out.
