• 49c3df6aa   [PATCH] x86: Move swsusp __pa() dependent code to arch portion ... Browse Code »

  o __pa() should be used only on kernel linearly mapped virtual addresses
  and not on kernel text and data addresses.

  o Hibernation code needs to determine the physical address associated
  with kernel symbol to mark a section boundary which contains pages which
  don't have to be saved and restored during hibernate/resume operation.

  o Move this piece of code in arch dependent section. So that architectures
  which don't have kernel text/data mapped into kernel linearly mapped
  region can come up with their own ways of determining physical addresses
  associated with a kernel text.
