Commit 09ba0de (USB: fsl_udc_core: prepare for SoCs with BE registers and descriptors) introduced two function pointers _fsl_readl and _fsl_writel in an #ifdef CONFIG_PPC32 block and used then unconditionally in fsl_udc_probe. To make the driver compile again this use has to be protected by an #ifdef, too. Moreover ARM doesn't have flush_dcache_range so this is #ifdefed out, too. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-K?nig <redacted> --- Hello, I'm unsure about getting rid of the flush_dcache_range. If powerpc needs a flush ARM probably does, too, no? If so, what it the right thing to do? Implement flush_dcache_range for ARM (just wrapping flush_dcache_page?)?As Russell seem to be OK with the #ifdef, can you please take this patch?Ick, no.
I never said I was OK with the #ifdef...
Come on, we don't have ifdefs in .c files for a reason, surely there is a better fix for this some other way?
I suggested ways to fix it, which apparantly got ignored. To repeat myself, what I said was: "Well, the folk introducing it should have added it to cachetlb.txt so that other folk know what the intentions of it are. At the moment it seems to be an unofficial extension with unknown semantics. Maybe the PPC folk can clear it up and fix other arches if they wish to make it an official arch cachetlb extension."
