Thanks for your series!

I gave this a try on Renesas RSK+RZA1 (RZ/A1H with 32 MiB of RAM)
and RZA2MEVB (RZ/A2M with 64 MiB of RAM) with a Debian nfsroot.
Seems to work, so
Tested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx>

However, I still managed to trigger memory allocation failures,
even on the RZ/A2, which I don't remember seeing last time I tried.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
