Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Fix bad SP address after relocating kernel
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 05:37:46 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110426123746.GC3755@atomide.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110426085700.GJ16892@atomide.com>

Otherwise cache_clean_flush can overwrite some of the relocated
area depending on where the kernel image gets loaded. This fixes
booting on n900 after commit 6d7d0ae51574943bf571d269da3243257a2d15db
(ARM: 6750/1: improvements to compressed/head.S).

Thanks to Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@nokia.com> for debugging
the address of the relocated area that gets corrupted, and to
Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org> for the other uncompress
related fixes.

I think this is the right fix.. And we don't want to mess with the
ZBOOT_ROM sp address, right?
