Subject: [PATCH 11/12] x86_64: do not reserve ramdisk two times
Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2008 14:04:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200803191404.56604.yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200803181237.33861.yhlu.kernel@gmail.com>

[PATCH] x86_64: do not reserve ramdisk two times

ramdisk is reserved via reserve_early in x86_64_start_kernel,
later early_res_to_bootmem() will convert to reservation in bootmem.

so don't need to reserve that again.
