Subject: [PATCH 00/14] Kernel memory leak detector

Hi,

That's the latest version of kmemleak. It is also available from:

git://linux-arm.org/linux-2.6.git kmemleak

For the past couple of months, kmemleak lived in the linux-next without
major incidents. I consider that the implementation is stable for
mainline inclusion.

Is there a consensus on whether kmemleak should be merged into the
2.6.31-rc1 kernel?

Are there any other comments on the code?

Thanks.
