Hi Thomas,

The CA9 MPcore SoC Control block allows to do some configuration that the SoC could use for a specific use case. In most cases the defaults case is enough. However there is few exception: for cpuidle we need to use the CA9 MPcore Reset Control register.I'd reword this to something like: """ The CA9 MPcore SoC Control block is a set of registers that allows to configure certain internal aspects of the core blocks of the SoC (Cortex-A9, L2 cache controller, etc.). In most cases, the default values are fine so they aren't many reasons to touch those registers, but there is one exception: to support cpuidle on Armada 38x, we need to modify the value of the CA9 MPcore Reset Control register. Therefore, this commit adds a new Device Tree binding for this hardware block, and uses this new binding for the Armada 38x Device Tree file. """

I will apply your change. Thanks, Gregory -- Gregory Clement, Free Electrons Kernel, drivers, real-time and embedded Linux development, consulting, training and support. http://free-electrons.com
