Looks technically ok; I just have a more stylistic problem with the patch:

Cavium introduced this idion first. Now your patch is repeating it and I'm
sure other SMP platforms will soon use it. I don't want a thousand
if (cpu == 0) in that file, so can you cook a patch that introduces a
helper, something like
static void set_elf_platform(const char *plat)
{
if (cpu == 0)
__elf_platform = plat;
}
Then use that for all assignments to __elf_platform? Thanks.
