Subject: [PATCH] x86, acpi: Remove out-of-date comment of __acpi_map_table
Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2013 02:22:47 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51DDA677.9000102@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Zhang Yanfei <zhangyanfei@cn.fujitsu.com>

The implementation of function __acpi_map_table() has been changed
long time ago, and now it directly invokes early_ioremap() to setup
the temporarily acpi table mappings. So remove its out-of-date
comment.
