Subject: [PATCH 12/13] x86/boot: Don't overwrite cr4 when enabling PAE
Date: Tue,  4 Mar 2014 13:14:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1393938861-16797-13-git-send-email-matt@console-pimps.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1393938861-16797-1-git-send-email-matt@console-pimps.org>

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com>

Some EFI firmware makes use of the FPU during boottime services and
clearing X86_CR4_OSFXSR by overwriting %cr4 causes the firmware to
crash.

Add the PAE bit explicitly instead of trashing the existing contents,
leaving the rest of the bits as the firmware set them.
