Currently ARM CPUs DT bindings allows different enable-method value for PSCI based systems. On ARM 64-bit this property is required and must be "psci" while on ARM 32-bit systems this property is optional and must be "arm,psci" if present. However, "arm,psci" has always been the compatible string for the PSCI node, and was never intended to be the enable-method. So this is a bug in the binding and not a deliberate attempt at specifying 32-bit differently. This is problematic if 32-bit OS is run on 64-bit system which has "psci" as enable-method rather than the expected "arm,psci". So let's unify the value into "psci" and remove support for "arm,psci" before it finds any users.

Gentle ping to include this in next round of arm-soc fixes. It would be good to get this fixed before v4.6 as we don't want to have user of the binding which we want to remove in the release. -- Regards, Sudeep -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
