2 * alloc.c - specialized allocator for internal objects
4 * Copyright (C) 2006 Linus Torvalds
6 * The standard malloc/free wastes too much space for objects, partly because
7 * it maintains all the allocation infrastructure (which isn't needed, since
8 * we never free an object descriptor anyway), but even more because it ends
9 * up with maximal alignment because it doesn't know what the object alignment
10 * for the new allocation is.
