[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch titled
     i386: probe_roms() cleanup
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     i386-probe_roms-cleanup.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: i386: probe_roms() cleanup
From: Rene Herman <rene.herman@xxxxxxxxx>

Remove the assumption that if the first page of a legacy ROM is mapped,
it'll all be mapped. This'll also stop people reading this code from
wondering if they're looking at a bug...
