[PATCH 1/8][mmotm] kcore use usual list for kclist

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Mon Aug 31 2009 - 06:03:54 EST


From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patchset is for /proc/kcore. With this,

- many per-arch hooks are removed.

- /proc/kcore will know really valid physical memory area.

- /proc/kcore will be aware of memory hotplug.

- /proc/kcore will be architecture independent i.e.
if an arch supports CONFIG_MMU, it can use /proc/kcore.
(if the arch uses usual memory layout.)



This patch:

/proc/kcore uses its own list handling codes. It's better to use
generic list codes.

No changes in logic. just clean up.
