It's a little funky that we've got a #ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP in the .c
file and then we're dodging around an #ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP in the
header. This is one of the reasons we shouldn't be putting #ifdefs in
.c files in the first place. But I digress...

Either way, if you focus on getting the dang #ifdef out of the main code
flow, the rest will fall in place easily. Heck, if you even do this in
the x86 kexec code:

static void kexec_save_processor_start(image)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP
if (image->preserve_context)
save_processor_state();
#endif
}

it'll leave you with:

kexec_save_processor_start(image);

/* Give a good reason here */
if (!image->preserve_context)
tdx_reset_memory();

which is *FINE*. No funky #ifdefs, indentation or else's dangling about.



Thanks for the insight and explanation! I'll use this in the new version.
