Hmmm... yeah, failure in early_init can be tricky to debug. > entirely sure (this optimisation can be dealt with later [it's non-critical], > so IMO this should be done in a separate patchset [if at all]).

But we'd be adding quite a few loops in relatively hot paths. I don't think it's a good idea to send the patches as-are because we can't debug and fix them properly, right? If there are hard ordering dependencies, the range of subsystems which require fork/exit doesn't have to be at the beginning.
