X-Git-Tag: v6.14-rc1~119^2~25
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=207bdf7f72ae8b1764de294ae59bdf5b015082bd;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

x86/kexec: Clean up and document register use in relocate_kernel_64.S

Add more comments explaining what each register contains, and save the
preserve_context flag to a non-clobbered register sooner, to keep things
simpler.

No change in behavior intended.
