Hey, all my suggestions were definitely for the "do it later". I'd hate to 
have this blow up to one large patch. I'm perfectly ok with the patch I 
replied to, I was more thinking that maybe there is then room for further 
(independent) fixups too.

So [vmalloc|pidhash|vfs_caches_eary]_init all fall under the "let's look 
at that too. If we start off with just the scheduler init ordering, that's 
good.
