From 00cd1c154d565c62ad5e065bf3530f68bdf59490 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Kiper Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2019 14:46:39 +0100 Subject: x86/boot: Introduce kernel_info.setup_type_max This field contains maximal allowed type for setup_data. Do not bump setup_header version in arch/x86/boot/header.S because it will be followed by additional changes coming into the Linux/x86 boot protocol. Suggested-by: H.
