----------------------------------------------------------------
Qualcomm ARM Based SoC Updates for v4.11

* Add SMCC quirk support
* Add Qualcomm SCM quirk to fix interrupted calls

Hi,

I replied on one of the patches. Not sure doing this through quirks is the
right way right now -- unless we expect a lot more quirks over time, and/or if
this is an "enhancement" that other vendors are also likely to pick up.

I saw.  We originally tried adding our own calls, but with the advent of the
arm_smccc call it was nice to be able to leverage that instead of adding a whole
new copy of the thing.  And people didn't like the original implementation all
that much because it somewhat abused the arm_smccc register conventions.

If we added our own, it'd be a copy of the arm one with the extra register
access.

Regards,

Andy
