From cb8c713f4030eeb2ca5a5919ff9311032f5288ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julien Grall Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2019 19:29:03 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xen/arm64: head: Rework and document check_cpu_mode() A branch in the success case can be avoided by inverting the branch condition. At the same time, remove a pointless comment as Xen can only run at EL2. Lastly, document the behavior and the main registers usage within the function.
