From 255aedd90e3e804fb52e1a71636a3b22cf12f81b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vivek Goyal Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2014 14:25:48 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] kexec: use common function for kimage_normal_alloc() and kimage_crash_alloc() kimage_normal_alloc() and kimage_crash_alloc() are doing lot of similar things and differ only little. So instead of having two separate functions create a common function kimage_alloc_init() and pass it the "flags" argument which tells whether it is normal kexec or kexec_on_panic. And this function should be able to deal with both the cases. This consolidation also helps later where we can use a common function kimage_file_alloc_init() to handle normal and crash cases for new file based kexec syscall.
