Subject: [PATCH v2 05/15] MIPS: KASLR: Drop relocatable fixup from reservation_init
Date: Fri, 2 Feb 2018 06:54:48 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180202035458.30456-6-fancer.lancer@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180202035458.30456-1-fancer.lancer@gmail.com>
From: Matt Redfearn <matt.redfearn@mips.com>
A recent change ("MIPS: memblock: Discard bootmem initialization")
removed the reservation of all memory below the kernel's _end symbol in
bootmem. This makes the call to free_bootmem unnecessary, since the
memory region is no longer marked reserved.
Additionally, ("MIPS: memblock: Print out kernel virtual mem
layout") added a display of the kernel's virtual memory layout, so
printing the relocation information at this point is redundant.
Remove this section of code.
