Subject: x86/boot: Clarify purpose of functions in misc.c
X-Git-Tag: android-x86-7.1-r1~1533^2~46
X-Git-Url: http://git.osdn.net/view?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c04028813221c2d39a4f368586795ac4466d311c;p=android-x86%2Fkernel.git

x86/boot: Clarify purpose of functions in misc.c

The function "decompress_kernel" now performs many more duties, so this
patch renames it to "extract_kernel" and updates callers and comments.
Additionally the file header comment for misc.c is improved to actually
describe what is contained.
