If ARM core gets powered off during suspend, L2 cache controller
has to be reinitialized by resume procedure.
The patch removes __init annotation from a few initialization
functions to make the reinitialization possible. ?For example,
platform resume function can call l2x0_of_init() to get L2 cache
back to work.
i think it is good. and i have sent a similar patch before:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg137372.html
[PATCH v2 3/4] ARM: L2X0: move l2x0_init out of .init section
people haven't give any feedback yet.
It also adds the empty function for l2x0_init() and l2x0_of_init(),
so that we can keep '#ifdef CONFIG_CACHE_L2X0' check in header.
