My impresion is that much problem comes from the fact that I didn't
split the patch the first time I sent it.
Most of the oppositon came against the arch/i386/kernel/cpu/{,mtrr/}
optimizations that are more an eample of how to achive further space
savings in this scheme but not a required part of this patch.
The main part wasn't non-controversal but it didn't have such a big
number of opponents.
