Subject: [PATCH] 2.4 HCDP early printk support
Date: Wed, 10 Sep 2003 18:18:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-linux-ia64-106321887122161@msgid-missing> (raw)
This adds config and HCDP support for early printk. This is
currently used only by IA64, and the equivalent code is
already in 2.5.
