Subject: Re: [PATCH v11 0/9] complete deferred page initialization

Btw. thanks for your persistance and willingness to go over all the
suggestions which might not have been consistent btween different
versions. I believe this is a general improvement in the early
initialization code. We do not rely on an implicit zeroing which just
happens to work by a chance. The perfomance improvements are a bonus on
top.

Thanks, good work!
