For what I see, that's based on the tradeoff between space and contention - for instance there are few zones only, so there's no big waste. In practice, interpreting !X86_GENERIC as "I will run this kernel on _this_ processor" could also be done. However, in case you didn't note, max_align is never enough on EM64T currently, right? -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
