The web interface seems to be at fault (or is it your fingers ;)
from my saved mail with Linus and yourself I have...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The patch you actually include seems to be a combination of
ChangeSet 1.373.204.73 2002/05/28 22:01:57 torvalds@home.transmeta.com
Remove re-use of "struct mm_struct" at execve() time.
This will eventually allow us to copy argc/argv without
any intermediate storage (removing current argument size
limitations).
and
ChangeSet 1.373.221.1 2002/05/28 22:55:46 torvalds@home.transmeta.com
Allocate new mm_struct for execve() early, so that we have
access to it by the time we start copying arguments.
