I see PID hash sizing problems on an Opteron.
I thought this got fixed a while ago? Hm.
Export nr_kernel_pages, nr_all_pages. Use nr_kernel_pages when sizing
the PID hash. This fixes a sizing problem I'm seeing with the x86-64 kernel
on an Opteron.


Please describe the the pid hash sizing problem.




max_pfn isn't set up at that time yet, I'm guessing. I didn't look
into it further than that.
