last time we had some data static and you asked to alloc them (and
didn't bother to answer why you required that :
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1207.0/02779.html ), now
you ask to declare static something which is allocated (and
that's already done this way for the mci) : may you please explain why
so that we get it the right way for next time ?

Thanks
Eric
