Re: [PATCH v5 0/7] kexec: add generic support for elf kernel images

Hi all,

This kexec patch series is the groundwork for kexec on the parisc architecture.
Since we want kexec on parisc, I've applied it to my for-next-kexec tree [1],
and can push it to Linus in the next merge window through the parisc tree [2].

If someone has any objections, or if you prefer to take it through
a kexec or powerpc tree, please let me know.

Helge
