If so, it's only a bug for resume, correct? I'm not sure if that's clear enough just from the commit message, I was looking at this patch for an e820 problem I'm currently facing on 3.3. > Reported-by: "Lee, Chun-Yi" <jlee@xxxxxxxx> > Tested-by: "Lee, Chun-Yi" <jlee@xxxxxxxx> > Cc: "Lee, Chun-Yi" <jlee@xxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> > Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hmm, although the bug is reported for a 3.12 kernel, I assume this is for stable 3.10+? If so, it should apply fine with the exception of removing e820_reserve_setup_data() from setup_arch() rather than memblock_x86_reserve_range_setup_data(). Or is it for 3.2 as well and needs to be completely rebased for that kernel? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
