Description Peter Gantner (a.k.a. nephros) 2020-04-06 09:37:57 UTC

There is a bug in ioremap.c which makes the kernel compile fail in case CONFIG_EFI is not set in the configuration.

See this for the error message: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/16/776

See this for the fix: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/3/18/809
