[PATCH v2] arm64: Get rid of struct cpu_table

Fri Mar 13 07:35:59 PDT 2015


struct cpu_table is an artifact left from the (very) early days of
the arm64 port, and its only real use is to allow the most beautiful
"AArch64 Processor" string to be displayed at boot time.

Really? Yes, really.

Let's get rid of it. In order to avoid another BogoMips-gate, the
aforementioned string is preserved.

* From v1:
- Don't bother using adrp/add to compute the branch to __cpu_setup,
  the kernel is small enough to be addressed with an imm26.
- Nuke some more unreachable code (__error_p and co).
