-gerrit commit f58d203a35b5a75feb3a17319a83d41385852a9f Author: Marc Jones <[email protected]> Date: Thu Oct 6 16:38:35 2011 -0600 Don't do a call as the first instruction in libpayload. Doing a call before the payload has set up its stack is risky. The stack may not be in a favorable location. Normally this is not an issue with coreboot or other well behaved callers.
