[PATCH V4] powerpc/prom: Export device tree physical address via proc

Thu Jul 15 01:18:53 EST 2010


To build a proper flat device tree for kexec we need to know which
memreserve region was used for the device tree for the currently
running kernel, so we can remove it and replace it with the new
memreserve for the kexec'ed kernel

V4: Fixed misspelling

V3: Remove unneeded cast, and fixed indentation screw up

V2: messed up changes
