It is not the number of iterations I am concerned about. In a Multi-SoC
environment, we add ranges for MBUS_ID(0xf0, 0x01) three times anyway
plus Dove's MBUS_ID(0xf0, 0x02).
Currently, we are lucky that MBUS_ID(0xf0, 0x01) is the same for all
SoCs and MBUS_ID(0xf0, 0x02) is exclusive for Dove. If we cross our
fingers and hope it will never change, we can just do:
static int dove_register_soc_fixup(void)
{
mvebu_mbus_add_range(0xf0, 0x01, MVEBU_REMAP_INT_REG_BASE);
mvebu_mbus_add_range(0xf0, 0x02, DOVE_REMAP_MC_REGS);
return of_register_fixup(dove_init_soc, NULL);
}
pure_initcall(dove_register_soc_fixup);
and
static int armada_370_xp_register_soc_fixup(void)
{
mvebu_mbus_add_range(0xf0, 0x01, MVEBU_REMAP_INT_REG_BASE);
return of_register_fixup(armada_370_xp_init_soc, NULL);
}
pure_initcall(armada_370_xp_register_soc_fixup);
and the same for Kirkwood.
If we want to make it safe for any future SoC that might break the
MBUS_ID() assumptions above, we can add the machine_id compatible
to mvebu_mbus_add_range(), i.e.
static int armada_370_xp_register_soc_fixup(void)
{
mvebu_mbus_add_range("marvell,armada-370-xp", 0xf0, 0x01,
MVEBU_REMAP_INT_REG_BASE);
return of_register_fixup(armada_370_xp_init_soc, NULL);
}
pure_initcall(armada_370_xp_register_soc_fixup);
If you put your current series into some branch I can pull, I can
add the required patches later today.
