I'll look into that.  I could put the memset() at the end of this
function so that it is done here no matter what.  And update the
default arch_kexec_post_alloc_pages() to also do the memset(). It
just hides the clearing of the pages a bit though by doing that.

Actually there is.  The above will result in data in the cache because
halt() turns into a function call if CONFIG_PARAVIRT is defined (refer
to the comment above where do_wbinvd_halt is set to true). I could make
this a native_wbinvd() and native_halt() as long as those are
guaranteed to never turn into function calls.  But never say never, so
that's why I created native_wbinvd_halt().

Thanks,
Tom

Ok, I'll check into that.
