The patch titled
kexec: use BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE on x86
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
kexec-use-bootmem_exclusive-on-x86.patch
This patch was dropped because it had testing failures
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: kexec: use BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE on x86
From: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@xxxxxxx>
This patch uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE, introduced in the previous patch, to
avoid conflicts while reserving the memory for the kdump carpture kernel
(crashkernel=).
The modification has been tested on i386.
