From 9833c39400c3e6ee19daeded6910df648741611e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mika Westerberg Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2010 09:29:24 +0100 Subject: ARM: 6485/5: proc/vmcore - allow archs to override vmcore_elf_check_arch() Allow architectures to redefine this macro if needed. This is useful for example in architectures where 64-bit ELF vmcores are not supported. Specifying zero vmcore_elf64_check_arch() allows compiler to optimize away unnecessary parts of parse_crash_elf64_headers(). We also rename the macro to vmcore_elf64_check_arch() to reflect that it is used for 64-bit vmcores only.
