Change subject: commonlib/timestamp_serialized.h: Drop outdated remark ......................................................................
Patch Set 1:
Given the comment in the source where the symbol is used (src/lib/cbfs.c:145 /* Note: timestamp not useful for memory-mapped media (x86) */), I guess it's more the issue of not being very useful because it's CPU bound anyway (as compared to platforms where different access strategies can make a big difference).
If so, maybe we should guard the uses there with if (!CONFIG(BOOT_DEVICE_MEMORY_MAPPED)), so that there's no such entry in cbmem on x86 to begin with (and also drop the remark here)?
