Subject: x86/kexec: remove unnecessary arch_kexec_kernel_image_load()
Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 16:44:15 -0600
Patch series "kexec: Remove unnecessary arch hook", v2.
There are no arch-specific things in arch_kexec_kernel_image_load(), so
remove it and just use the generic version.
This patch (of 2):
The x86 implementation of arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() is functionally
identical to the generic arch_kexec_kernel_image_load():
arch_kexec_kernel_image_load # x86
if (!image->fops || !image->fops->load)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOEXEC);
return image->fops->load(image, image->kernel_buf, ...)
arch_kexec_kernel_image_load # generic
kexec_image_load_default
if (!image->fops || !image->fops->load)
return ERR_PTR(-ENOEXEC);
return image->fops->load(image, image->kernel_buf, ...)
Remove the x86-specific version and use the generic
arch_kexec_kernel_image_load(). No functional change intended.
