[PATCH 01/11] devicetree: bindings: Document cpu enable-method for ARM CPUs

From: Stephen Boyd <hidden>
Date: 2013-11-01 22:12:23
Also in: linux-arm-msm, linux-devicetree, lkml
Subsystem: open firmware and flattened device tree bindings, the rest · Maintainers: Rob Herring, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Conor Dooley, Linus Torvalds

From: Rohit Vaswani <redacted>

According to the ePAPR CPUs should have an enable method. On ARM
the enable-method property has not been used so far, so document
this property as an optional property and add the spin-table
method as one value
