Subject: [PATCH] x86,setup: add serial_console_port_base in boot_params
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 15:27:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C3F8B46.7080809@kernel.org> (raw)
to save the early_serial_base.
Also bootloader could fill that field, so setup code could reuse it.
decompress code could reuse early serial console from setup code.
