2.6.28-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge commit 618b2c8db24522ae273d8299c6a936ea13793c4d upstream. 1: make "target_kb" only accept and produce a memory size in kilobytes. 2: add a second "target" file which produces output in bytes, and will accept memparse input (scaled bytes) This fixes the rather irritating problem that writing the same value read back into target_kb would end up shrinking the domain by a factor of 1024, with generally bad results.
