This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Subject: kexec: move locking into do_kexec_load
Patch series "compat: remove compat_alloc_user_space", v5.
Going through compat_alloc_user_space() to convert indirect system call
arguments tends to add complexity compared to handling the native and
compat logic in the same code.
This patch (of 6):
The locking is the same between the native and compat version of
sys_kexec_load(), so it can be done in the common implementation to reduce
duplication.
