Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] arm64: add macros for common adrp usages
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2015 16:39:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426001982-20047-2-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1426001982-20047-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org>

The adrp instruction is mostly used in combination with either
an add, a ldr or a str instruction with the low bits of the
referenced symbol in the 12-bit immediate of the followup
instruction.

Introduce the macros adr_l, ldr_l and str_l that encapsulate
these common patterns.
