Hi Eric,

Are you referring to BACKUP_REGION_START and BACKUP_START declarations?

I am not sure why did I do that, may be somehow I thought that purgatory
code is not sharing the header files with main kexec code base.

Please have a look at the patch attached for i386. If this looks
fine, I shall generate the patches for x86_64 and ppc64 too.

Thanks & Regards
Vivek
