[PATCH v3 02/17] x86/hyperv: detect if Linux is the root partition

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

 



For now we can use the privilege flag to check. Stash the value to be
used later.

Put in a bunch of defines for future use when we want to have more
fine-grained detection.
