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

 



3.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a9fbf4d591da6cd1d3eaab826c7c15f77fc8f6a3 upstream.

Commit d0380e6c3c0f6edb986d8798a23acfaf33d5df23 (early_printk:
consolidate random copies of identical code) added in 3.10 introduced
a check for con->index == -1 in early_console_register().

Initialize index to -1 for the xenboot console so earlyprintk=xen
works again.
