Re: imx7d dual core boot

Hi Ahmad,

I think I've found the problem with my imx7d:
in your commit id ae0a375ba71ba9b9a70cb7eda177445fcfbf586d:

ARM: cache-armv7: remove duplicate domain initialization
...

you removed the two asm lines:

		movne	r1, #-1
		mcrne	p15, 0, r1, c3, c0, 0	@ load domain access control

from arch/arm/cpu/cache-armv7.S

If I add them back then the imx7d does not hang anymore and
the kernel is able to boot and power up the second core as
expected.

I have just one last question: what is the reason for the
'mov r12, lr' at the beginning of v7_mmu_cache_on ?
