From: KOSAKI Motohiro on

Grr, I did sent old ver. right patch is here ;-)
sorry.

================================================
Subject: [PATCH] reduce stack usage of node_read_meminfo()

Now, cmpilation node_read_meminfo() output following warning. Because
it has very large sprintf() argument.

drivers/base/node.c: In function 'node_read_meminfo':
drivers/base/node.c:139: warning: the frame size of 848 bytes is
larger than 512 bytes

This patch fixes it by splitting sprintf() in three parts.
This also reduce CONFIG_HIGHMEM mess a bit.

dunno. but I don't want to make behavior change for only stack reducing.

100% my fault. I ran it, but I forgot to merge two patches ;)
