However, afaik, head-nommu.S can be used by different processors too, hence that register needs to be free to use for all possible __cpu_flush implementations. That said, proc-v7.S stores r11 on the stack, so it really seems that r11 is ok to use? -- Stefan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
