Hi everyone,
This is version two of the patches I previously posted here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260907164024.17164-1-will@kernel.org/
There have been quite a few changes since last time, thanks to all the
feedback from humans and robots alike. These include:
* Added tags (but I didn't carry over Pankaj's T-b, since the series
has changed a fair bit).
* Fix secondary entry assembly code to handle timeouts correctly.
* Fix stashing of MPIDR so that we don't clobber STACK_END_MAGIC.
* Fix NULL dereference if PSCI fails to initialise.
* Enable RCU as soon as a secondary CPU is alive.
* Drop pointless (unreachable) optimisation to
arch_cpuhp_sync_state_poll().
* Include cpufeature patches from Fuad so that 'cpu_data' is populated
with register values taking into account any cmdline overrides. This
is necessary for correct handling of 'boot_cpu_data' later on, where
the previous version of this series stashed a stale copy of mpamidr.
As before, the first four patches are small changes to the generic code
to make it a little more "Arm-shaped" but the rest of the series is
largely confined to the arm64 architecture and PSCI driver code.
The series is based on -rc2, as it otherwise conflicts with Fuad's GMID
fix that was recently merged upstream.
Cheers,
Will
