Hi guys,


 I'm working on an derived muas3001 board (kernel version 2.6.30-rc5),

and so far I did not find an example of multiple SOCs initialization.

The board has 3 cpus (only one core activated).
This is not currently supported -- there are lots of places, especially
in 82xx/CPM code, that assume there's only one instance of the SoC.
1) Is there a special syntax to use in the device tree ?
You'd have multiple instances of the soc node (plus kernel changes to
make this work).  You'll probably need some way of indicating which one
contains the running core.
