metag: Remove unnecessary of_platform_populate with default match table

2016-06-23T20:00:26+00:00

After patch "of/platform: Add common method to populate default bus",
it is possible for arch code to remove unnecessary callers of
of_platform_populate with default match table.

Merge tag 'devicetree-for-3.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux

2013-11-12T07:52:17+00:00

Pull devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
"DeviceTree updates for 3.13. This is a bit larger pull request than
usual for this cycle with lots of clean-up.

- Cross arch clean-up and consolidation of early DT scanning code.
- Clean-up and removal of arch prom.h headers. Makes arch specific
prom.h optional on all but Sparc.
- Addition of interrupts-extended property for devices connected to
multiple interrupt controllers.
- Refactoring of DT interrupt parsing code in preparation for
deferred probe of interrupts.
- ARM cpu and cpu topology bindings documentation.
- Various DT vendor binding documentation updates"

metag: handle low level kicks directly

2013-11-06T10:40:02+00:00

Kick interrupts trigger the LWK (low level kick) signal, usually handled
by the __TBIDoStdLWK() function which is the only handler inherited from
the bootloader. The LWK signal is converted either to a SWK (plain
software kick) or a SWS (software kick with an attached message).

Linux has kick_handler() to handle SWK and call registered kick handlers
(IPIs and inter-thread comms), but SWS is as far as I'm aware unused
with Linux.

Therefore remove that abstraction and have Linux handle LWK directly.
This will reduce kick latency slightly, and reduce our dependence on the
bootloader, which makes it easier to directly boot a kernel in QEMU
(particularly for SMP).

metag: of_platform_populate from arch generic code

2013-06-13T11:14:06+00:00

If no init_machine callback is provided, call of_platform_populate()
instead. This allows a board/SoC that only needs to call
of_platform_populate to omit the callback altogether.
