You've got to be kidding me! I wrote sexier patches than this, and ones
that actually got somewhere! What about the all-new ultra-lightweight
O(1) proc_pid_statm() implementation for 2.6 /proc/ semantics? Or the
/proc/profile consolidation, and the /proc/profile livelock fixes I wrote
for 512x Altixen atop that? Or the CLONE_IDLETASK removal that fixed the
init_idle() cleanups so they booted on sparc32 and sparc64 and optimized
all bootstrap-related code out of runtime fork() codepaths entirely?
