Subject: [PATCH] [1/3] Don't set up early exception handlers for external interrupts
Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 12:07:08 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200802251207.906590508@firstfloor.org> (raw)
All of early setup runs with interrupts disabled, so there is no
need to set up early exception handlers for vectors >= 32
That saves some text size
