[PATCH v2 0/2] ARM: Remove any correlation between IPC and BogoMips value

Hi all,

This is version two of the patches I originally posted here:

  http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-May/166728.html

Comments received there largely confirmed that it's not possible to choose
an `obviously bogus' value for BogoMIPs, so instead I've bitten the bullet
and removed the line altogether.

In the meantime, I've only had one complaint this month about BogoMIPs
being wrong, so perhaps the initial posting served some purpose without
even being merged!

Comments welcome,

Will
