Hi

So i don't have to repost my patch here. Please use the original
commit log message[1/3] as is.
But please keep in mind that there is still an issue that I mentioned
in the cover letter; 'Size' field is inaccurate.
  <reported size> = <its own dynamic local variables>
                         + <child's local variables>
and
  <real size> = <reported size> + <its local variables>
                                - <child's local variables>
where "dynamic" means, for example, a variable allocated like the below:
   int foo(int num) {
     int array[num];
     ...
   }
(See more details in my ascii art.)

Such usage is seldom seen in the kernel, and <reported size> is
likely equal to <child's local variables>. In other words, we will
see one-line *displacement* in most cases.

(We'd better mention it explicitly in the commmit?)

Thanks,
-Takahiro AKASHI
