From 2826f8c0f4c97b7db33e2a680f184d828eb7a785 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jes Sorensen Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 11:30:09 -0400 Subject: [IA64] Fix boot failure on ia64/sn2 Call check_sal_cache_flush() after platform_setup() as check_sal_cache_flush() now relies on being able to call platform vector code.

Thus a NULL test or memset after calls to these functions is unnecessary.
