Hi,
I am wondering if 2.4.x/2.6.x kernel is scalable enough to run on

If yes, is the scalablity is near linear?
Any input is appreciated.

This patch moves "struct utrace" into "struct task_struct" directly instead of
being referenced by a pointer from task_struct. The main reason is utrace code
leaving stale ->utrace pointer and freeing "struct utrace" itself. This
manifests as crashes in __rcu_process_callbacks() and other nasties.
