Subject: [PATCH] efi/libstub: Move efi_relocate_kernel() into its only remaining user
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 19:06:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428170608.3561937-2-ardb+git@google.com> (raw)

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

LoongArch is the only arch that still uses efi_relocate_kernel(), so
before making changes to it that LoongArch needs, turn it into a private
function. Move efi_low_alloc_above() into mem.c while at it, and drop
the relocate.c source file altogether.

Cc: Huacai Chen <chenhuacai@loongson.cn>
Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>
---
Unless there are any objections, I will queue this up and rebase the
LoongArch changes adding efi_cache_sync_image() on top of it.
