Subject: [PATCH 1/5] x86-32: Split cache flush handler from simd handler
Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 14:20:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1268936453-3727-2-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1268936453-3727-1-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com>

Make the cache flush handler a seperate function, and use
an alternative to call the appropriate handler.
