If ibm,hypertas-functions prop has to be part of rtas or rtas@0 node to decide we are on LPAR then how about splitting the probe_fw_features functions into two functions, one to detect FW_FEATURE_LPAR and another function to do the rest?
also do we expect other firmware features to be set along with FW_FEATURE_LPAR?
No only FW_FEATURE_LPAR feature so that kernel can decide the crashkernel offset accordingly. Thanks for the review. - Sourabh Jain
