It seems like this patch is causing the SoCFPGA to not boot with SMP
reliably. About 1 out of every 10 reboots, I'm seeing the boot failure
below. The error seems to only happen when I do a cold or warm reboot,
but never occurs during a power-up. If I revert this patch, or put
back the call to v7_invalidate_l1 in socfpga_secondary_startup , then
its able to boot 100% of the time.
Just wondering if anyone else is seeing something similar?
I am testing this on both linux-next and arm-soc/rmk/for-arm-soc. When
the failure happens, here's the log:
