Subject: update boot spec to 2.07
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc1~112
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e5371ac566b6794f2125393b6850909de9e16f58;p=linux-2.6

update boot spec to 2.07

Updates for version 2.07 of the boot protocol.  This includes:

load_flags.KEEP_SEGMENTS- flag to request/inhibit segment reloads
hardware_subarch	- what subarchitecture we're booting under
hardware_subarch_data	- per-architecture data

The intention of these changes is to make booting a paravirtualized
kernel work via the normal Linux boot protocol.
