Looking at the rest of the series, it doesn't look like there is a real
benefits to have the static memory and reserved memory in separate
arrays as they are walked only a few times and they are both meant to be
small. In fact, I think this code is lot more difficult to read.
So it would be best to merge the two arrays in one. We can add a flag in
the structure to differentiate between "static" and "reserved" memory.
Cheers,
