    x86/efi: Store upper bits of command line buffer address in ext_cmd_line_ptr · 98b228f5
    Roy Franz authored
    Until now, the EFI stub was only setting the 32 bit cmd_line_ptr in
    the setup_header structure, so on 64 bit platforms this could be truncated.
    This patch adds setting the upper bits of the buffer address in
    ext_cmd_line_ptr.  This case was likely never hit, as the allocation
    for this buffer is done at the lowest available address.  Only
    x86_64 kernels have this problem, as the 1-1 mapping mandated
    by EFI ensures that all memory is 32 bit addressable on 32 bit
    platforms.  The EFI stub does not support mixed mode, so the
    32 bit kernel on 64 bit firmware case does not need to be handled.
