From: Sudeep KarkadaNagesha <sudeep.karkadanagesha@xxxxxxx> As more and more information is getting added into the cpu node, the number of drivers needing to parse the device tree for CPU nodes are increasing. Most of the time, the information needed from the cpu node is preferred in the logical CPU order. Hence many drivers first parse and search the CPU node, match them to logical index if needed and then search for the required property inside a particular cpu node. Some of them assume the logical and physical CPU ordering to be same which is incorrect. This patch series initialises the of_node in all the cpu devices when registering the CPU device. 1. This avoids different drivers having to parse the cpu nodes to obtain different attributes like operating points, latency,...etc. 2. This handles different physical and logical cpu ordering which is not the case in current code. 3. Also all the cpu nodes will have their of_node initialised correctly. Currently different drivers assign them partially and incorrectly. 4. Removes all the reduntant parsing in various drivers.
