Subject: [PATCH v11 3/8] kexec_file: Factor out kexec_locate_mem_hole from kexec_add_buffer.
Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2016 23:45:49 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1480423554-6411-4-git-send-email-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1480423554-6411-1-git-send-email-mpe@ellerman.id.au>

From: Thiago Jung Bauermann <bauerman@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

kexec_locate_mem_hole will be used by the PowerPC kexec_file_load
implementation to find free memory for the purgatory stack.
