Subject: [PATCH 2/3 -mm] kexec jump -v8 : add write support to oldmem device
This patch adds writing support for /dev/oldmem. This can be used to
- Communicate between original kernel and kexeced kernel through write
to some pages in original kernel.
- Restore the memory contents of hibernated system in kexec based
hibernation.
