Can you split out the debug UART changes into a separate patch?

Do you have a strong reason to have your own defconfig file? We currently
try to consolidate as much as possible into multi_v7_defconfig, so please
see if you can extend that instead to do what you need.

Some of these are already implied by ARCH_MULTI_V7 and can be dropped
from this list.

Why do you need a static I/O mapping? You should not rely on hardcoded
virtual or physical addresses in general.

This seems like stuff that should go into the device drivers for the
respective hardware blocks, not into platform code.

What does this part do? Isn't that something that should have been set
up by the boot loader?

We try hard to avoid having register available this early and outside
of device drivers. Can you try to make at least some (if not all) of
these more regular, and provide specific comments in the code why this
is not possible for the others?

This is the default function an can be omitted.

These should probably all be private to the files that use them

You should have comments here about why this is necessary.

It looks like you are accessing a register area that is providing power
domains for not just the CPUs but other parts of the system as well,
which should be a proper device driver, e.g. pm_domain or regulator
depending on what the hardware actually does, and then you plug
the SMP code into that. Do you think that would work here?

In the long run, I would like to see the platform SMP code get merged with
the cpuidle device drivers and moved to drivers/cpuidle, but we're not
quite at the point where this can be done.

I think you should use udelay() here rather than creating your own, but
I may be missing the specific requirements. Of course it would be better
not to need it at all.
