*
* Memory allocator for large groups of small objects.
* This should be used for large groups of objects that are created and
* destroyed together. When used carefully for this purpose it is faster
* and more memory efficient than malloc. Additionally to a usual obstack
* like allocator you can also free the objects individually. Because it
* does no compaction it still is faster than malloc()/free(). Depending
* on the exact usage pattern that might come at the expense of some
* memory though.

* Gives back a block returned by allocate() to the zone

* up deallocation. The consistency of that structure is maintained
* from then on (by allocate() and deallocate()) unless many
* more objects are allocated without any intervening deallocation, in
* which case it's thrown away and rebuilt at the next deallocate().
*
* The effect of this is, that such initial deallocate() calls take
* more time then the normal calls, and that after this list is built, i.e.
* generally if deallocate() is used at all, also allocate() is a
* little bit slower. This means, that if you want to squeeze out the last
* bit performance you would want to use KZoneAllocator as an obstack, i.e.
* just use the functions allocate() and free_since(). All the
* remaining memory is returned to the system if the zone allocator
* is destroyed.

* a kind of mark of a certain position in the stack of all objects,
