[PATCH resend] arm:extend the reserved memory for initrd to be page aligned

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

 



this patch extend the start and end address of initrd to be page aligned,
so that we can free all memory including the un-page aligned head or tail
page of initrd, if the start or end address of initrd are not page
aligned, the page can't be freed by free_initrd_mem() function.
