Subject: [PATCH 2.6.19-rc5-git2] EFI: calling efi_get_time during suspend

From: Artiom Myaskouvskey <[email protected]>

Function efi_get_time called not only during init kernel phase but also
during suspend (from get_cmos_time).
When it is called from get_cmos_time the corresponding runtime service
should be called in virtual and not in physical mode.

unfortunately your patch is word wrapped; please try using an email
program that does not wrap emails (or worst case, try using attachments
instead, but those are horrible in terms of patch review)

Hi--

Shouldn't the /__init/ on efi_set_rtc_mmss() also be dropped?
