The quilt patch titled Subject: kexec: remove unnecessary arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kexec-remove-unnecessary-arch_kexec_kernel_image_load.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kexec: remove unnecessary arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 16:44:16 -0600 arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() only calls kexec_image_load_default(), and there are no arch-specific implementations. Remove the unnecessary arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() and make kexec_image_load_default() static. No functional change intended.
