[PATCH] - Increase max kmalloc size for very large systems

From: Jack Steiner
Date: Fri Mar 03 2006 - 10:50:32 EST


Systems with extemely large numbers of nodes or cpus need to
kmalloc structures larger than is currently supported. This
patch increases the maximum supported size for very large systems.

This patch should have no effect on current systems.
