Remove excessive empty lines from arm64_relocate_new_kernel.
Also, use comments on the same lines with instructions where
appropriate.

Change ENDPROC to END it never returns.

copy_page(dest, src, tmps...)
Increments dest and src by PAGE_SIZE, so no need to store dest
prior to calling copy_page and increment it after. Also, src is not
used after a copy, not need to copy either.

Call raw_dcache_line_size()  only when relocation is actually going to
happen.

Since '.align 3' is intended to align globals at the end of the file,
move it there.

To make it harder to read? Or just for the churn ...

Churn,

It might be more useful to convert this to the new style annotations, which should be a
separate patch. See Documentation/asm-annotations.rst

This bit sounds like cleanup, but I can't isolate it from the noise below....

Why?

The pattern in this code is to setup register that don't change at the top, then do all
the work. I think this was an attempt to make it more readable.

Nothing branches back to that label, so this is fine, its just less obviously correct.

Please don't make noisy changes to whitespace and comments, its never worth it.


Thanks,

James
