[PATCH 06/16] arm64: Add EL2 switch to cpu_reset

Geoff Levand geoff at infradead.org
Mon Oct 19 16:38:53 PDT 2015


When a CPU is reset it needs to be put into the exception level it had
when it entered the kernel. Update cpu_reset() to accept an argument
which signals if the reset address needs to be entered at EL1 or EL2.

Also, update the comments of cpu_reset() and cpu_soft_restart() to reflect
this change.
