This is the sequel to the first episode that started here:

Now that most of the first set has been merged upstream, here's the last
set to complete the cleanup. This mainly includes the removal of the
backward compatibility support plus some cosmetic changes.

The hisi04 backend, though, is instead converted to raw SMP operations
as it currently doesn't benefit from MCPM at all and doesn't fit well
with the new backend structure.

Looks like all good stuff.  What's the merging plan for this?

I'm not sure yet.  Except for the hisi04 patch, this is all generic 
stuff.  That could go upstream either via your tree or arm-soc I 
suppose.

Of course if new MCPM-using platforms are to be merged this cycle, 
they should be using the new interface. But that's already in mainline 
so that doesn't depend on this series.

What do you think?
