Can you please
  a) make this feature optional,
  b) (de)allocate this buffer dynamically when the first/last console with
      CON_EXTENDED set is (un)registered?

Your patch is at the top of the bloat-o-meter output (against v4.1):

proc_pid_cmdline_read                          -    1020   +1020

and unlike the others, this one is not that difficult to fix.

Thanks!
