I'm one of those people who *really* wants to cut down the kernel size.

If it's 5k nobody will care. I care about 5K. (But honestly, I don't actively hunt stuff less than 10K in size, because there's too many of them to chase, currently). -- Tim _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
