The idea is that all the code for the particular problem hardware should be able to go in a separate directory with only additional build options in config.in. This patch finally gets rid of the last five visws specific pieces from smpboot.c (at the expense of a smpboot_hook.h header) it's available at (109k): http://www.hansenpartnership.com/voyager/files/arch-split-2.5.26.diff There's also a bitkeeper repository with all this in at http://linux-voyager.bkbits.net/arch-split-2.5 James Bottomley
