Subject: [RESEND] The initmpfs patches.

Attached, so you don't have to fish them out of:

   http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1306.3/04204.html

Do they look worth applying, or should I wash it through linux-next for  
a bit? (Which I'm not sure how to do if I don't host a git tree on a  
server, or I'd have done it already.)

There was a previous post with a patch demonstrating the basic concept  
a while ago (https://lwn.net/Articles/545740/). This is the cleaned up,  
broken up, tested in as many ways as I could think of, does not have  
section mismatches, allows you to disable it at runtime, passes  
checkpatch.pl version. Still applies to a git pull from 3 minutes ago  
(two patches have offsets, but no fuzz).

Thanks,

Rob
