[PATCH] fix arm26 THREAD_SIZE
arm26 currently has a 256 kB THREAD_SIZE (sic). Looking at the comment in the code, this seems to be based on a misunderstanding. The comment says: this needs attention (see kernel/fork.c which gets a nice div by zero if this is lower than 8*32768 kernel/fork.c does: max_threads = mempages / (8 * THREAD_SIZE / PAGE_SIZE) Therefore, a division by 0 is impossible for all reasonable cases with THREAD_SIZE >= PAGE_SIZE. Since the minimum PAGE_SIZE Linux uses on the arm26 architecture is 16k, PAGE_SIZE should be sufficient for THREAD_SIZE.
