Based on everything I've seen so far, this should go under drivers/acpi instead.

soc drivers seem to live in drivers/soc (non-arm32, anyway), so I
decided on this location. But drivers/acpi would also seem reasonable now.


Hi Rafael,

Any reasons for not putting it into drivers/acpi/pptt.c specifically?
.

I don't think so.

One thing is that the code does a one-time scan of the PPTT to find all processor package nodes with ID structures to register the soc devices - so we would need some new call from from acpi_init() for that.

Thanks,
John
