Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Fix relocation if image end past uncompressed kernel end
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2011 03:49:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110421104954.GH13688@atomide.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110421055945.GB13688@atomide.com>
Otherwise we end up overwriting ourselves. This fixes booting
on n900 after commit 6d7d0ae51574943bf571d269da3243257a2d15db
(ARM: 6750/1: improvements to compressed/head.S).
