| |
Folks,
Please consider pulling the following fixes.
The first two are releated to the bug report I got from Linus and Josh Boyer, whereby Fedora20 + grub2 systems were no longer booting. Linus reverted the offending commit that broke grub2 boot, but that left us in a state where Macbooks still didn't boot with EFI. This is fixed with the below revert and I'm dropping a noisey boot time efi_printk() based on Josh's request and Linus' OK.
The third patch fixes a 32-bit EFI boot stub bug where garbled text is displayed on the screen if any of the efi_printk() statements run.
The following changes since commit 3eddc69ffeba092d288c386646bfa5ec0fce25fd:
x86 early_ioremap: Increase FIX_BTMAPS_SLOTS to 8 (2014-09-14 15:24:31 +0100)
