Problems booting exynos5420 with >1 CPU

[Doug Anderson]

Hi,

When I try to boot linuxnext on my exynos5420-peach-pit chromebook I
have problems bringing up extra CPUs:

1. They don't come up

2. As they're coming up you can see U-Boot print out (!).  This sounds
similar to something that was happening during bringup where the other
CPUs didn't realize that they were not the primary CPU and started the
boot process all over again.

Can someone from Samsung take a look, or point at any in-flight
patches that will fix this?


Thanks!  Logs are below...  I'm on linuxnext 20140605 + my patch to
fix earlyprintk.  I'm using
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/overlays/chromiumos-overlay/+/master/eclass/cros-kernel/exynos5_defconfig>
but with CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8.


-Doug
