Subject: [PATCH 1/4] ARM: zImage: ensure it is always a multiple of 64 bits in size
Date: Tue, 21 Jun 2011 01:09:12 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308632955-11070-2-git-send-email-nico@fluxnic.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308632955-11070-1-git-send-email-nico-vtqb6HGKxmzR7s880joybQ@public.gmane.org>
From: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre-QSEj5FYQhm4dnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org>
This is needed for proper alignment when the DTB appending feature
is used.
