In my opinion since its something configurable by the board and not SoC specific it should be defined (or re-defined) on the board dts. If one makes a 5422 board booting from A15's that patch will be already invalid and causing the issue that it fixes. 2015-07-14 2:04 GMT-03:00 Kukjin Kim <kgene@xxxxxxxxxx>: > Krzysztof Kozlowski wrote: >> >> On 14.07.2015 09:24, Chanho Park wrote: >> > The odroid-xu3 board which is based on exynos5422 not exynos5800 is >> > booted from cortex-a7 core unlike exynos5800.
