[PATCH v3 2/4] arm64: dts: Add Qualcomm MSM8916 SoC and evaluation board dts

Which of spin-table/psci are you planning on using for SMP support, and
when would that be likely to appear?

We have a qcom specific SMP enablement method for this device.  This
was one of our first devices so it utilized as much from arm 32-bit as
possible.

Implementation specific enable methods are something we really don't
want to see for arm64. If PSCI is out of the question then a spin-table
shim in your bootloader shouldn't be too hard to implement.

Which exception level do CPUs enter the kernel? Even without a
virt-capable GIC booting at EL2 is less work for the FW and gives the
kernel a better chance of fixing things up (e.g. CNTVOFF).

I think the enter in EL1.

That's unfortunate, but so long as they are consistent, it's not the end
of the world.

Mark.
