Hi SMP fans!

The reason for different SMP crashes might be the kernel stack, which is
probably too small for some variable declarations. On SMP, there is probably
more stack pressure than in non-SMP mode, so the crashes occur there.

I am working on a change of all local variable declarations of type char[] to
kmalloc as well as on the 2.4 port.

Amon.
