How about a compromise, start off the patch series getting it working with
task struct static array, and then finish the series with the dynamic
array.

This is my development model, because it lets me know where the bugs are
better. If we find some strange bug, this can help pin point via a bisect
if the bug is with the general code, or with the use of a dynamic array.

Just my preference ;-)
