Can we quit coming up with specialist hacks for hotplug, and try to solve
the generic problem please? hotplug is NOT the only issue here. Fragmentation
in general is.
Not really it isn't. There have been a few cases (e1000 being the main
one, and is fixed upstream) where fragmentation in general is a problem.
But mostly it is not.
Sigh. OK, tell me how you're going to fix kernel stacks > 4K please. And 
devices that don't support scatter-gather DMA.
