Thanks for the patch, I think this patch is necessary.


But it doesn't solve my problem. My purpose is to port the loongarch architecture
kexec-tools tool to Debian.

However,debian community's automatic build system pulled the source from
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools-2.0.27.tar.gz


So, my problem may still require updating the archive.
But I can wait for version 2.0.8 then continuing the debian porting work.

Should this problem be fixed in 2.0.28?
