Bob, here is the queue of changes that are in my local tree and I think are just about ready to push out. They include all of the MM work we did to increase the max phys bits and fix DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, as well as the sparseirq stuff. The kernel is so much smaller now, about 7.4MB compared to what used to be nearly 14MB. We almost halved the size, and I bet there is some more low hanging fruit out there. So we are significantly within the range of only needing 2 locked TLB entries to hold the kernel (we used to need 4). I'm eager to push this, but I also want it to get tested so I'll hold off for about a day or so in order to give some time for that. In particular, I'd be real interested in how the new code handles that stress test wherein a guest was created with an insanely fragmented memory map, I suspect we still need a bump of MAX_BANKS for that guy. If you could figure out what kind of value that test needs and let me know, I'd appreciate it.
