And I didn't hear anything from the people who may have workarounds
for this bug:

| arch/mips/kernel/setup.c: initrd_below_start_ok = 1;
| arch/parisc/mm/init.c: initrd_below_start_ok = 1;
| arch/powerpc/kernel/prom.c: initrd_below_start_ok = 1;
| arch/ppc/platforms/hdpu.c: initrd_below_start_ok = 1;
| arch/xtensa/kernel/setup.c: initrd_below_start_ok = 1;

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Geert

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
