Thanks for pulling the forkbomb-prevention work. Here's a re-post of
the memory leak patches.
Next on my list was a prototype I started to make Andreas' softdep code
a bit simpler. It reads all the config file data into memory at the
start, instead of re-parsing it for each module. (I think it freed it
all afterwards, but it could save the effort and just leave the pointers
around so it doesn't look like a leak to valgrind). The idea was to
avoid having to pass all the filenames to insmod() (which was needed in
case it called do_softdep()).
