That said, I also look at "resume_kernel". There's no reason to make that globally visible afaik. It looks local to entry_32.S, and should look like restore_all rather than resume_userspace. So we probably should remove the ENTRY() for that too, and just make it be ALIGN resume_kernel: instead? I guess the reason for removing that other ENTRY() is different from this case, though.. Linus
