[RFC PATCH v2 02/18] x86/asm/head: use a common function for starting CPUs

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

 



There are two different pieces of code for starting a CPU: start_cpu0()
and the end of secondary_startup_64().  They're identical except for the
stack setup.  Combine the common parts into a shared start_cpu()
function.
