Absolutely! That's what I thought all the time when following this
(meanwhile quite grotesque) discussion. Even for ordinary
home/office/laptop/desktop users (!=kernel developers), kernel crashes
are simply not a realistic scenario any more to optimize anything for
(which is due to the good work you guys are doing in making/keeping
the kernel stable).
