From: Daniel Schwierzeck Date: Thu, 9 May 2013 15:10:06 +0000 (+0200) Subject: MIPS: bootm: optimize kernel entry call X-Git-Tag: v2013.10-rc1~34^2~6 X-Git-Url: https://git.sur5r.net/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4b37847d3f8f98335253bd0e7aeee3ba141b237;p=u-boot MIPS: bootm: optimize kernel entry call Fix signature of kernel entry function. Mark the kernel entry with __noreturn for better code optimisation.
