[PATCH 10/13] ARM: bL_switcher: add kernel cmdline param to disable the switcher on boot

Nicolas Pitre nicolas.pitre at linaro.org
Mon Jul 22 23:31:26 EDT 2013


By adding no_bL_switcher to the kernel cmdline string, the switcher
won't be activated automatically at boot time.  It is still possible
to activate it later with:

	echo 1 > /sys/kernel/bL_switcher/active
