The boot_lock is something that was required for ARM development platforms to ensure that the delay calibration worked properly. This is not necessary for modern platforms that have better bus bandwidth and do not need to calibrate the delay loop for secondary cores. Remove the boot_lock entirely. Signed-off-by: Russell King <redacted>Andy have you had a chance to test/apply this patch?I would rather folk do not _apply_ these patches - the final patch is dependent on all the preceeding patches, and if they're applied to individual trees, it will mean that the final patch has to be delayed by a complete kernel development cycle to avoid bisect breakage.
Ah good point. It's way better that you queue it up indeed. Yours, Linus Walleij _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
