Subject: [PATCH v10 11/18] arm64: kexec: arm64_relocate_new_kernel clean-ups and optimizations
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 2021 14:19:16 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210125191923.1060122-12-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210125191923.1060122-1-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com>

In preparation to bigger changes to arm64_relocate_new_kernel that would
enable this function to do MMU backed memory copy, do few clean-ups and
optimizations. These include:

1. Call raw_dcache_line_size()  only when relocation is actually going to
   happen. i.e. kdump type kexec, does not need it.

2.  copy_page(dest, src, tmps...) increments dest and src by PAGE_SIZE, so
    no need to store dest prior to calling copy_page and increment it
    after. Also, src is not used after a copy, not need to copy either.

3. For consistency use comment on the same line with instruction when it
   describes the instruction itself.

4. Some comment corrections
