how to reserve memory in linux?

Yes, it sounds reasonable. With this function, I can reserve a large amount 
of buffer during booting time. But I think maybe it will be better to put 
this function in the device driver and when booting time, the driver is 
loaded and the memory part is reserved for later use, right?

Thanks for your idea so much. It's really helpful.

Regards
Ming
