I was looking at some of these while trying to OMAP5
support. Indeed the cpu_is_* is becoming increasingly
no maintanable and ugly. Thanks for the series.

Have reviewed the series & tested it on OMAP4430 SDP.
Firstly I tried applying the branch against mainline
only to realise that it does depend on Paul's
earlier series. So used directly your branch
"for_3.5/cleanup/hwmod-cpu-is" to test it out.

Only one comment on function names considering
OMAP4/5 compatibility.
Should omap4_*() defined in this series should be
called omap4plus_*() or similar considering they can
be directly used on OMAP5 devices too.

Otherwise FWIW,
