Subject: [PATCH] [22/26] i386: Remove smp_alt_instructions
Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2007 01:46:32 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070429234632.2ED1A151C5@wotan.suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070430146.588463000@suse.de>


From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>
The .smp_altinstructions section and its corresponding symbols are
completely unused, so remove them.

Also, remove stray #ifdef __KENREL__ in asm-i386/alternative.h
