# HG changeset patch
# User kfraser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
# Node ID ac51e8f371083af035d03321d2e59d42ea080e26
# Parent c09dab67c17855458ee7dbed94e31c263454f217
Allow loading of ELF kernel images that support both PAE and non-PAE.
Also change the elf loader to not look for a strings section unless it
is needed.
