From 0f4a9041c7a77240fa1ff927775620b574151f34 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe Leroy Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 19:08:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/kconfig: make _etext and data areas alignment configurable on Book3s 32 Depending on the number of available BATs for mapping the different kernel areas, it might be needed to increase the alignment of _etext and/or of data areas. This patchs allows the user to do it via Kconfig.
