ACPI for Arm Components 1.1 Platform Design Document v1.1 [0] specifices
Arm Generic Diagnostic Device Interface (AGDI). It allows an admin to

This patch implements SDEI path.

Why don't we call agdi_init() from acpi_init() as we do for IORT/VIOT ?

I don't think it is necessary to add a device_initcall(), with related
ordering dependencies.

That's a good point. I change it.

Actually, I looked at this more carefully. acpi_init() is called in subsys_initcall() while sdei_init() is called in subsys_initcall_sync(). That is, if I call this function in acpi_init(), SDEI driver won't be ready and this driver fails to register the event.

Cheers, Ilkka
