Marco,

My Cc: list is already getting rather long ... I worry about
adding more mailing lists to it.  Embedded is a bit worrying
for me as I've been a bit cavalier about memory allocation in
the current version (on the theory that I was targeting servers,
and a few Kbytes, or even tens of Kbytes wasn't worth worrying
about on a server - which these days is likely to have a minimum
of 4 GBytes).

I grepped around for "pmem" in drivers/staging in linux-next and
got a lot of hits - but none of them leapt out as something
similar.  Can you point a bit more specifically?

-Tony
