Hi Marek,
I've give it a try with hotplug torture tests and has only one a minor
comment.
On 6/16/20 9:12 AM, Marek Szyprowski wrote:
The additional soft-reset call during little core power up was needed
to properly boot all cores on the Exynos5422-based boards with secure
firmware (like Odroid XU3/XU4 family). This however broke big.LITTLE
CPUidle driver, which worked only on boards without secure firmware
(like Peach-Pit/Pi Chromebooks).
Apply the workaround only when board is running under secure firmware.

I can see that you have moved this call up, probably to avoid more
'if-else' stuff. I just wanted to notify you that this function
'exynos_cpu_powerup' is called twice when cpu is going up:
1. by the already running cpu i.e. CPU0 and the 'state' is 0 for i.e.
CPU2
2. by the newly starting cpu i.e. CPU2 by running
'secondary_start_kernel' and the state is 3.
In this scenario the 'exynos_cpu_power_up' will be called twice.
I have checked in hotplug that this is not causing any issues, but
thought maybe it's worth share it with you. Maybe you can double check
in TRM that this is not causing anything.

Other than that, the patch set looks good to me.
