Hi all,

2.6.23-rc8 and 2.6.23-rc8-git4 fail to build on one of my test
machines, with:

drivers/built-in.o(.init.text+0x780e): In function `dmi_id_init':
: undefined reference to `__you_cannot_kmalloc_that_much'

The code is allocating sizeof(struct device) so it really shouldn't be
a problem. I have no idea what's wrong. That's on i386, very old
machine (Pentium 166MMX / Intel TX chipset), with gcc 3.2.3 and
binutils 2.14.90.0.6. 2.6.22.9 compiles fine on the same system (but it
doesn't include dmi-id so it's not very surprising).

.config attached.
