From 83ea05ea69290b2e30da795527dbe304db1e2331 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xiaotian Feng Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 17:23:07 +0800 Subject: x86: pat: Clean up req_type special case for reserve_memtype() Commit: b6ff32d: x86, PAT: Consolidate code in pat_x_mtrr_type() and reserve_memtype() consolidated code in pat_x_mtrr_type() and reserve_memtype(), which removed the special case (req_type is -1) for the PAT-enabled part. We should also change comments and the PAT-disabled part.
