[numaq] highpage init speedup

From: William Lee Irwin III (wli@holomorphy.com)
Date: Thu Dec 05 2002 - 22:10:06 EST


Speed up highpage init by manual unrolling and large page freeing.
Boots & runs, and gets a small speedup of the boot process (which
is frequently exercised).

Martin, please apply.
