Bug#613321: linux-image-amd64: Please enable 'memtest' option for all linux kernels



Your request cannot be satisfied since the MEMTEST option is only
available for x86.  However, I suspect that's all you really care about.

Since this feature requires almost no extra memory (the code is all
discardable after boot) I'm prepared to enable it.  However, I will
modify it to taint the kernel if any memory fault is detected, on the
basis that there are likely to be other undetected faults.

Ben.
