[RFC PATCHv3] ARM: mvebu: Let the device-tree determine smp_ops

[Chris Packham]

The machine specific SMP operations can be configured either via
setup_arch or via arm_dt_init_cpu_maps. For the ARMADA_370_XP_DT devices
both of these are called and setup_arch wins because it is called last.
This means that it is not possible to substitute a different set of SMP
operations via the device-tree.

Add a new smp_ops_is_set API that tells us if something else has already
set smp_ops. Use this new API in a smp_init function for the
ARMADA_370_XP_DT compatible devices to prevent setup_arch from
overriding the operations configured earlier.

Hi,

I didn't see any comment's on v2[1]. I'm not sure if I should take this as
disapproval with that approach or just a sign that people are busy.

This is an alternative solution that addresses one issue I had with the v2
implementation namely we now know whether smp_ops have been set or not and can
use this information to avoid setting them again. The downside is I'm now
modifying core code.

Thanks,
Chris
