Finally done - found out hard way that BUG() is too bad and
dump_st5ack() suits me better.

Hi David,
Sorry for the late review.
Note that I can't test your code.

Deleting random parts of the kernel tree is actually not
supported.

To my recall: Never.
Some limited subset of C++ was tried, but was soon abandoned.
Overall the kernel data structures are done in objectish-manner,

Yes, what is the use of keeping other arch, if I am not going to build those.
Thank you,

lots of rejects - merging this was pretty icky. Hopefully i got it right

From: Christoph Lameter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
x86_64 provides an optimized way to determine the local per cpu area
offset through the pda and determines the base by accessing a
merge to x86.git below. Please check.

From: Christoph Lameter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
x86_32 only provides a special way to obtain the local per cpu area offset
via x86_read_percpu. Otherwise it can fully use the generic handling.
