Hi there,
Yes, I can test this patch.
I have added it to my tree and removed the reversion, and can confirm
that the second CPU comes up correctly now.
Martin
Thank you very much for your report and testing, I'll send a patch later
Thanks

Hi there,
I have bisected OpenWrt master, and then the Linux kernel down to this
change, to confirm that this change causes a kernel panic on my
P1020RDB-based, dual-core Aerohive HiveAP 370, at initialization of
the second CPU:

Here is the kernel configuration for this built kernel:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=blob_plain;f=target/linux/mpc85xx/config-5.10;hb=HEAD
In case a force-push is needed for the source repository
(https://github.com/Hurricos/openwrt/commit/ad19bdfc77d60ee1c52b41bb4345fdd02284c4cf),
here is the device tree for this board:

.
When CONFIG_FSL_PMC is set to n, cpu_up_prepare is not assigned to
mpc85xx_pm_ops. I suspect that this is the cause of the current null
pointer access.
I do not have the corresponding board test environment. Can you help me
to test whether the following patch solves the problem?
