The kzalloc thing is safe as we have already successfully boostrapped all kmalloc caches at that point. The per-CPU caches that are replaced by do_tune_cpucache() point to boostrap-time array caches there (see use of struct arraycache_init in setup_cpu_cache). - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
