  22  * Implement a stack of talloc frames.
  23  *
  24  * When a new talloc stackframe is allocated with talloc_stackframe(), then
  25  * the TALLOC_CTX returned with talloc_tos() is reset to that new
  26  * frame. Whenever that stack frame is TALLOC_FREE()'ed, then the reverse
  27  * happens: The previous talloc_tos() is restored.
  28  *
  29  * This API is designed to be robust in the sense that if someone forgets to
  30  * TALLOC_FREE() a stackframe, then the next outer one correctly cleans up and
  31  * resets the talloc_tos().
