[PATCH 2/5] x86: find_early_table_space based on memory ranges that

https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/9/540

Actually, apply that series of 5 patches.


I was hoping Tejun would comment on it, but I think I'll pull it into -tip.

However, the real question is what we should do for -stable; applying
the full patch series seems a big aggressive for that. On the other
hand, if it really is The Right Thing then perhaps we should do so anyway.


Ah, right... still waiting for a rev of the patch to address Yinghai's legitimate request for minor code restructuring. Other than that, the patchset is really The Right Thing.
