[PATCH 15/17] x86/kexec: Remove walk_iomem_res() call with GART type

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Tue Jan 26 2016 - 15:58:25 EST


From: Toshi Kani <toshi.kani@xxxxxxx>

There is no longer any driver inserting a "GART" region in the kernel
since

707d4eefbdb3 ("Revert "[PATCH] Insert GART region into resource map"").

Remove the call to walk_iomem_res() with "GART" type, its callback
function, and GART-specific variables set by the callback.
