[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [PATCH 3/3] EFI: drop copy-in from QueryVariableInfo()'s OUT-only variable bouncing
While be12fcca8b78 ("efi: fix alignment of function parameters in compat
mode") intentionally bounced them both ways to avoid any functional
change so close to the release of 4.16, the bouncing-in shouldn't really
be needed. In exchange the local variables need to gain initializers to
avoid copying back prior stack contents.
