The patch titled fix I/OAT for kexec has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fix-i-oat-for-kexec.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: fix I/OAT for kexec From: Dan Aloni <da-x@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Under kexec, I/OAT initialization breaks over busy resources because the previous kernel did not release them. I'm not sure this fix can be considered a complete one but it works for me. I guess something similar to the *_remove method should occur there..
