Re: [announce] [patch] NX (No eXecute) support for x86, 2.6.7-rc2-bk2

[Christoph Hellwig]

the _GPL export of vmalloc_exec is silly, it's a trivial __vmalloc wrapper
and __vmalloc is exported.  You might be better of just killing it anyway,
I don't see much use for it outside module support.

apropos modules, in SuSE's 2.4 kernels Andi had a nice optimization to
not use vmalloc if we could get high enough order allocations, might be
worth ressurecting that.
