Russell,
We have Cortex-A9 hardware (U8500) at ST-Ericsson. We can test your patches.
Let me know how frequently you would like to test these patches
on recent kernels? And do you have some specific test scenarios
wherein we can reproduce this Cortex A9's data corruption issue?

Hi,

I need help testing Cortex A9 patches.  What I need is someone with a
fairly fully fledged Cortex A9 platform with the ability to build and
test recent kernels - and therefore be able to test my patches without
modification.

Specifically, I'm looking for someone who can reproduce data corruption
on DMA transfers from devices caused by Cortex A9's speculative prefetching

Unfortunately, I have no way to reproduce this problem here (I have no
Cortex A9 hardware), and as such I can't test the fixes.
