This patch series is a part of continuation work from following series [1] and [2]. 1: exynos: Move pmu driver to driver/soc folder and add exynos7 support http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-samsung-soc/msg39797.html from Amit Daniel Kacchap 2: soc: samsung: pmu: split up SoC specific PMU data https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/7/12 from me+Cc Bartlomiej, There were some concerns for previous versions of this patchset. I cannot find all of them (e.g. Bartlomiej's are not present on lkml.org anymore) so I am not sure if they were addressed properly.Yes. If I recall correctly he has following main concerns: 1: To convert exynos-pmu to a proper platform driver before moving out of arch/arm/mach-exynos. This is already addressed. 2: Do we really need common driver for both ARM and ARM64? I feel yes, as at least I can see that driver's basic structure will be reused. As in case of PMU driver most of lines of code is data part (register offset and its values in different mode), that part will be kept in separate file e.g. exynos7-pmu.c or exynosXXXX-pmu.c. There has been already one attempt of submission for exynos7 PMU driver at: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-November/305418.html 3: He had a concern that in case of ARM64 build most of ARM related code will be present in binary which will be dead code, that can be addressed by excluding ARM based SoC exynosXXXX-pmu.c file in Makefile. It has been taken care in v3 7/7 patch in drivers/soc/samsung/Makefile.
Sounds reasonable to me. Maybe someone will have other comments but for me it's okay. When sending next version, please CC linux-pm mailing list and arm-soc maintainers (Arnd, Olof, Kevin). Best regards, Krzysztof
