[PATCH 0/9] soc: brcmstb: biuctrl updates for 64-bit chips

Hi all,

This patch series updates the Broadcom STB Bus Interface Unit controller to
support newer chips such as 7260, 7268, 7271 and 7278. These chips require
additional tuning in order to provide the expected bus throughput.

In the process, we need to re-organize the common.c file a little bit in order
to extract the family and product identifiers a little earlier.

Finally, by moving the biuctrl initialization an early_initcall level, we can
remove some code from the ARM-32bit machine descriptor file.

Provided that we are happy with these changes, I would route them through my
drivers/next branch and a subsequent Broadcom ARM SoC pull request.

Thank you
