Subject: Re: [PATCH][4/4] kexec based dump: Minor cleanups
Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 16:22:58 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4177950A.6090404@in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <417794AC.8060604@in.ibm.com>
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 131 bytes --]
This patch moves some crashdump related calls out of
machine_kexec so that we leave the core kexec code untouched.
Regards, Hari
