From e9e3b985623461f7b7e378005c32ddaa52b45ccb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dima Dorfman Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2002 00:09:24 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Remove the "special processes" section. It has rotted, and the idea ceased to be useful when the number of "special processes" went from 3 to one per device. I considered replacing it with a "kernel threads" section, but this seemed like the wrong place for that.
