The patch titled
Subject: kexec: simplify conditional
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kexec-simplify-conditional.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Geoff Levand <geoff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kexec: simplify conditional
Simplify the code around one of the conditionals in the kexec_load syscall
routine.
The original code was confusing with a redundant check on KEXEC_ON_CRASH
and comments outside of the conditional block. This change switches the
order of the conditional check, and cleans up the comments for the
conditional. There is no functional change to the code.
