Subject: [PATCH] kexec_file: remove unused arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole hook
Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 20:14:52 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260827144452.508328-1-sourabhjain@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

No architecture provides an implementation of
arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole(). Use kexec_locate_mem_hole() directly
and remove the unused fallback wrapper from the kexec header.

This simplifies the kexec memory allocation path without changing
its behavior.
