Yah, no point in defining silly wrappers _kexec() and _firmware() if the
actual e820 tables are already exported in asm/e820/api.h
You need a single
e820__range_update_table(struct e820_table *t, ..)
helper and move all current and future users to it while leaving
e820__range_update() alone which works on the e820_table.
As a future cleanup, e820__range_update() should be changed to use the
new e820__range_update_table() helper and then perhaps all code should
be converted back to a new
e820__range_update()
which takes a table as a first argument.
But the cleanup can go in later, after the current issue has been
resolved.
Thx.
