From 6e0678f394c7bd21bfa5d252b071a09e10e7a749 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Dobson Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2006 01:37:44 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mempool: add page allocator This will be used by the next patch in the series to replace duplicate mempool-backed page allocators in 2 places in the kernel. It is also likely that there will be more users in the future.
