<br>
The kernel documentation says that any function that uses more than 512<br>
bytes on the stack is a candidate for change.<br>
<br>
However, it doesn't say under what conditions (what config options).<br>
<br>
I found 193 functions matching, some with stacks quite larger than that.<br>
I suspect this could be the result of some config options, maybe.<br>
<br>
What would you recommend me checking?<br>
