Subject: [PATCH 09/11] powerpc/nvram: Change nvram_setup_partition() to use new helper
Date: Mon,  2 Aug 2010 10:55:20 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1280710522-6362-10-git-send-email-benh@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1280710522-6362-9-git-send-email-benh@kernel.crashing.org>

This changes the function to use nvram_find_partition() instead
of doing the lookup "by hand". It also makes some of the logic
clearer and prints out more useful diagnostic information.
