[PATCH 11/12] ARM: head.S: use PC relative insn sequence to calculate PHYS_OFFSET

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Replace the open coded arithmetic with a simple adr_l/sub pair. This
removes some open coded arithmetic involving virtual addresses, avoids
literal pools on v7+, and slightly reduces the footprint of the code.
