The reason I am asking is that is assembly worth my time to learn for this part of the kernel, I understand it's use in boot code but outside of that and cache memory lines in architecture directories there is very little, 95 percent of the kernel is written in C. In addition due to this the only practical reason I can thing of is for debugging, how useful is assembly for kernel debugging is my other question about this topic.
We're not going to bail you out here, Nick. Either learn enough assembly to answer your question, or don't obsess over one line of code and assume it works.
