Hopefully last round of initial support patches for Marvell Berlin SoCs
before I can send the final PR for v3.14.
Compared to last version sent, this patch set has now a Reviewed-by from
Thomas Gleixner for the irqchip driver (Thanks for that!). Also, l2x0
compatibles can now be reordered alphabetically instead of by derivate
thanks to [1].
Marvell Docs have been updated to not mention Armada 1000 which has been
discontinued by Marvell and vanished from their website. The dtsi/dts file
have been renamed to vendor,name.dts[i], which is the preferred new naming
scheme.
Open issues are the never ending dw_apb_timers_of story, which I ignore
for now and hope they get in someday. Also, TWD SMP dependency and
early l2x0_of_init will be addressed at a later date. At the current
feature set of Berlin SoC, I don't see why the above issues should further
stall this patches.
I guess, all patches can go through ARM SoC tree, except Tauros3 patch
which I should submit to Russell's patch tracker?
Yep, sounds good.
I took a cursory glance at the patchset and it looks sane to me. I didn't
review in detail though.
One open question: Why don't you just add this to mach-mvebu? I thought
all modern Marvell platforms were going to converge on that eventually
anyway, and it's easy to add it now that it's early and simple..
Olof,
I started with mach-mvebu in the first RFC, but Berlin SoCs are from a
different business unit at Marvell and are more PXA compatible than
Orion/Kirkwood/Armada 370/XP. Most notably, they lack the "mbus" and
IP is either from PXA/MMP or Synopsys DW. Thomas Petazzoni and also
Jisheng Zhang from Marvell suggested to not put it into mvebu but
have a different mach folder instead.
Also, see below:

We have had a long-standing standard of naming the dts files
<family>-<board>.dts (or <soc_vendor>-<board>.dts). Let's continue
sticking to that since it helps keep the namespace somewhat segmented per
platform in arch/arm/boot/dts.
Also, here: I had the naming that way until v3, then Kumar suggested to
use prefixed naming scheme. Maybe I got it wrong?
Are you suggesting to name the above back to:
berlin2[cd].dtsi,
berlin2-nsz-gs7.dts, and
berlin2cd-chromecast.dts?
