As you suggested debugging statements, I guess the Linux kernel doesn’t offer other ways to instrument functions without modifying the source code. Is it possible to only rebuild the module somehow or is the early handoff stuff not a module? > It's also worth mentioning that the same source file contains lots of > special-case code for AMD and ASmedia hardware.

I haven’t had to time to read the commit messages, which might shed some light into the reasoning. Kind regards, Paul
