The patch titled
     Subject: x86/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec
has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch.  Its filename is
     x86-kexec-refactor-for-kernel-kconfigkexec.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/x86-kexec-refactor-for-kernel-kconfigkexec.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

*** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code ***

The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything
branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
and is updated there every 2-3 working days

Subject: x86/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec
Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2023 18:20:16 -0400

The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec.  Utilize the common options and provide the
ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the equivalent set of
KEXEC and CRASH options.
