From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org (Ard Biesheuvel) Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2016 16:36:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] arm64: kernel: use x30 for __enable_mmu return address In-Reply-To: <1472049366-10922-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> References: <1472049366-10922-1-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Message-ID: <1472049366-10922-6-git-send-email-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org List-Id: linux-arm-kernel.lists.infradead.org Using x27 for passing to __enable_mmu what is essentially the return address makes the code look more complicated than it needs to be. So in preparation of further simplifications, switch to x30/lr.
