    ARM: EXYNOS: Don't rely on firmware's secondary_cpu_start for mcpm · 7cbcb9d4
    Doug Anderson authored
    On exynos mcpm systems the firmware is hardcoded to jump to an address
    in SRAM (0x02073000) when secondary CPUs come up.  By default the
    firmware puts a bunch of code at that location.  That code expects the
    kernel to fill in a few slots with addresses that it uses to jump back
    to the kernel's entry point for secondary CPUs.
    
    Originally (on prerelease hardware) this firmware code contained a
    bunch of workarounds to deal with boot ROM bugs.  However on all
    shipped hardware we simply use this code to redirect to a kernel
    function for bringing up the CPUs.
    
    Let's stop relying on the code provided by the bootloader and just
    plumb in our own (simple) code jump to the kernel.  This has the nice
    benefit of fixing problems due to the fact that older bootloaders
    (like the one shipped on the Samsung Chromebook 2) might have put
    slightly different code into this location.
    
    Once suspend/resume is implemented for systems using exynos-mcpm we'll
    need to make sure we reinstall our fixed up code after resume.  ...but
    that's not anything new since IRAM (and thus the address of the
    mcpm_entry_point) is lost across suspend/resume anyway.
