Hi Gustavo,

Sounds good. If Lutz is ok with it, you can go ahead.
We can run a test build on s390.

Best regards,
Martin

Hi Martin!

hmm I missed that one. It looks like it's also present and unused on s390 code.
Should I place a RFR to cleanup generate_load_table_addr + kernel_crc32_2word (PPC64 and s390)?
I won't be able to test the s390 builds...
