Hi Andrew,

Here are the updated immediate values for 2.6.23-rc3-mm1. It depends on "Text
Edit Lock".

The example user is the scheduler profiling, but I plan to use it mainly for my
linux kernel markers. Immediate values should prove themselves useful in
situation where features, such as profiling, are rarely used, but should
nevertheless be compiled in a distribution kernel because of their usefulness to
provide useful profiling information.

Mathieu
