Hrm... find_memory_core_early() is a broken API anyways. Did you add
that ? Again, you insist on pushing all over the place that crakpot
find/reserve API instead of doing a proper allocation, and it's now
leaking with ifdef's & all into the generic code.
This is just all a pile of shit.
I'm tempted to NACK the whole thing and wait for somebody who can code
to come up with something half decent.
