+/*
+ * Basic general purpose allocator for managing special purpose
+ * memory, for example, memory that is not managed by the regular
+ * kmalloc/kfree interface.  Uses for this includes on-device special
+ * memory, uncached memory etc.
+ *
+ * It is safe to use the allocator in NMI handlers and other special
+ * unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks.  This
+ * is implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any
+ * conflicts.  The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in
+ * extreme cases.  For better scalability, one allocator can be used
+ * for each CPU.
+ *
+ * The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory
+ * available.  If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be
+ * still taken.  So any user relying on locklessness has to ensure
+ * that sufficient memory is preallocated.
+ *
+ * The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long.
+ * On architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation,
+ * the allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler.  So code uses the
+ * allocator in NMI handler should depend on
+ * CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.
