What is use of apply_alternative function from alternative.c

[Pritam Bankar <pritambankar1988@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Cal anyone help me in understanding alternative.c file from Linux source code.

I want to learn function apply_alternative. AFAIK this code applies better replacement to instruction set used by processor.

But I am not sure what exactly it is doing ?
