kexec/i386: allocate page table pages dynamically
Impact: save .text size when kexec is built in but not loaded This patch adds an architecture specific struct kimage_arch into struct kimage. The pointers to page table pages used by kexec are added to struct kimage_arch. The page tables pages are dynamically allocated in machine_kexec_prepare instead of statically from BSS segment. This will save up to 20k memory when kexec image is not loaded. Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
