Ingo Molnar <mingo@pc5829.hil.siemens.at> mailed a script to check
kernel stack sizes.  This is a modification to include modules as well
as vmlinux, to handle those procs where subl $0x...,%esp is not the
first instruction (common in 2.0, some in 2.1) and to look for dynamic
arrays on stack.  Also replaces 3 grep, 2 awk, 1 cut with 1 sed.  mingo
suggested I mail to the list.

objdump --disassemble vmlinux modules/*.o | \
sed -ne '/subl.*$0x.*,%esp/s/.*<\([^+>]*\).*$0x\([^,]*\).*/\2 \1/p;/subl[^(]*,%esp/p' | \
egrep '^... |%esp' | sort -r | less

Partial list on a 2.1.26 system, 5c4 for a stack size is a bit nasty.
The entries at the bottom (address <routine+offset> subl %eax,%esp)
indicate dynamic arrays on kernel stacks - I hope the length checks on
those arrays are right.
