[PATCH] ehea: add kexec support

From: Jan-Bernd Themann
Date: Fri Oct 26 2007 - 08:37:45 EST


eHEA resources that are allocated via H_CALLs have a unique identifier each.
These identifiers are necessary to free the resources. A reboot notifier
is used to free all eHEA resources before the indentifiers get lost, i.e
before kexec starts a new kernel.
