That is much cleaner indeed, I'm not sure if enc_bit have any other usage, if not we can just drop it for sure. Hi Thomas, can you help confirm if enc_bit is only a cache to avoid doing the cpuid stuff? -- Best Regards, Kairui Song _______________________________________________ kexec mailing list kexec@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/kexec
