Adding a random boolean flag to a function is a horrible way to do
anything.
Now you need to look up what that flag means every time you run across a
caller, breaking your reading of what is happening.
Make this two different functions please, that describe what they do,
and have them call a common "helper function" that does the work with
the flag if you really want to do this type of thing.
link_mem_sections() and link_mem_sections_hotadd()?
But not this way, please no.
thanks,
greg k-h
