[PATCH v2 04/12] x86: Support booting a 64-bit kernel from 64-bit U-Boot

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Fri Mar 10 21:48:54 CET 2023


Add the missing code to handle this. For a 64-bit kernel the entry
address is 0x200 bytes after the normal entry.

Rename the parameter to boot_linux_kernel() accordingly. Update the
comments to indicate that these are addresses, not pointers.
