(You pointed that out in my patchset so perhaps you > want it here?) Good point, I used 1U whilst moving the code in patch #2 but forgot here. I will update the patch and resend it. Regards,

This patch contains only renaming and comment update. There are no functional changes: - Don't mix _start and _stext, they both point to the same address but the former makes more sense (we are mapping the Xen binary, not only the text section). - s/text_mfn/xen_mfn/ and s/text_order/xen_order/ to make clear that we map the Xen binary. - Mention about inittext as alternative may patch this section.

Let me know if there is any issue for that.
