ll.6041-6091 of that file is blamed to arch/ia64/kernel/domain.c
by pickaxe -C (attributed to commit 2.6.12-rc2) while blame says
they are brought in by commit 9c1cfa, which says "Move the ia64
domain setup code to the generic code".  I am slowly realizing
that comparing the output from blame and pickaxe might be a good
way to study the project history.
