[PATCH] ssb: Add SPROM fallback support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This adds SSB functionality to register a fallback SPROM image from the
architecture setup code.

Weird architectures exist that have half-assed SSB devices without SPROM attached to
their PCI busses. The architecture can register a fallback SPROM image that is
used if no SPROM is found on the SSB device.

John, please merge in the next feature window.
The actual user of this interface will be merged through the mips tree.
