Subject: [PATCH 4/8] x86/microcode: Mark early_data __initdata
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 23:16:29 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901231634.714144-5-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901231634.714144-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
early_data records the revisions seen during early loading, and
microcode_init() is its last reader.
Mark the storage reclaimable afterwards.
