The following commit has been merged into the x86/boot branch of tip: Commit-ID: 207bdf7f72ae8b1764de294ae59bdf5b015082bd Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/207bdf7f72ae8b1764de294ae59bdf5b015082bd Author: David Woodhouse <dwmw@xxxxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu, 05 Dec 2024 15:05:08 Committer: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Fri, 06 Dec 2024 10:41:58 +01:00 x86/kexec: Clean up and document register use in relocate_kernel_64.S Add more comments explaining what each register contains, and save the preserve_context flag to a non-clobbered register sooner, to keep things simpler. No change in behavior intended.
