I applied this on top of the existing patch in my test tree. The first few kexec's went just fine, but when I tried to switch from a kernel based on arch/ia64/configs/tiger_defconfig to a kernel based on arch/ia64/defconfig, the system failed to boot (probably because of problems with the mpt/fusion driver). Last few messages on the console were: Fusion MPT base driver 3.03.09 Copyright (c) 1999-2005 LSI Logic Corporation Fusion MPT SPI Host driver 3.03.09 GSI 28 (level, low) -> CPU 1 (0xc018) vector 49 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:06:02.0[A] -> GSI 28 (level, low) -> IRQ 49 mptbase: Initiating ioc0 bringup mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - Doorbell ACK timeout (count=4999), IntStatus=80000000! mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - Doorbell ACK timeout (count=4999), IntStatus=80000000! mptbase: ioc0: ERROR - Diagnostic reset FAILED!
