For future reference, plase leave out unreadable commit messages like this: While adding support loading kernel and initrd above 4G to grub2 in legacy mode, I was referring to efi_high_alloc(). That will allocate buffer for kernel and then initrd, and initrd will use kernel buffer start as limit. During testing found two buffers will be overlapped when initrd size is very big like 400M. I pulled it, because you do explain the commit in the second half of the changelog, in parentheses - but instead of forcing readers through the crappy part, please just drop the crappy explanation and fix it up, or require your contributors to submit proper changelogs. (Yinghai Lu is a repeat offender in that area.)
