    No it doesn't.

    Look a bit more closely.

    It builds a struct (singular) MANY MANY times. It also then builds up a
    huge e1000_opt_list[] array, even though it is const and should be static
    (and const).

    I know. I wrote a patch to FIX it.

    Here's the patch. It shrinks the stack from 1152 bytes to 192 bytes (the
    first version, that only did the e1000_option part, got it down to 600
    bytes). About half comes from not using multiple "e1000_option"
    structures, the other half comes from turning the "e1000_opt_list[]"
    arrays into "static const" instead, so that gcc doesn't copy them onto the
    stack.

    Most of the patch is actually doing things like turning

    struct struct e1000_option opt = {

    (which declares a _new_ e1000_option variable each time) into

    opt = (struct e1000_option) {

    which just re-uses the single variable.

    It becomes slightly larger than that, because some places the "opt = .."
    had to be moved around, since it's no longer a variable declaration, but a
    regular assignment.

    The rest is just adding "const" to the right places, and turning

    struct e1000_opt_list speed_list[] = ..

    into

    static const struct e1000_opt_list speed_list[] = ..

    instead, and fixing the indentation to be more straightforward.

    I have not tested the dang thing, but I think it's correct. And it turns
    stack usage from "totally horrible and broken" into "pretty reasonable".
