Subject: [PATCH] x86/boot: clear rsdp address in boot_params for broken loaders
Date: Mon,  3 Dec 2018 11:38:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181203103811.17056-1-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

In case a broken boot loader doesn't clear its struct boot_params clear
rsdp_addr in sanitize_boot_params().

This fixes commit e6e094e053af75 ("x86/acpi, x86/boot: Take RSDP
address from boot params if available") e.g. for the case of a boot via
systemd-boot.

Fixes: e6e094e053af75 ("x86/acpi, x86/boot: Take RSDP address from boot params if available")
