Hi Chen-Yu,
Hi everyone,
This series rewrites the Allwinner/sunxi PSCI implementation in C, to make it easier to maintain and extend for the currently unsupported multi-cluster SoCs. The SMP code in the BSP kernels are in C. Having the PSCI code in C as well will make it easier to work on.
To be able to convert the platform bits to C, some common PSCI functions have to be fixed up according to the ARM calling conventions. Function declarations are also needed.
This series is based on sunxi/next. Parts of it will likely conflict with the effort to support PSCI 1.0 on the Freescale LS102xA.

Thanks a lot for doing this and for following up on the review comments; I'm quite pleased with how it ended-up, so please put my

on all of these patches.
Cool. Chen-Yu, Marc thank you both for your hard work on this.
So what to do wrt merging this set, 2 questions:
- Timing, v1 was posted in time for v2016.07, but given how far along
the cycle we are now I tend towards postponing this to v2016.09, note I've no objections with this going into v2016.07 if people prefer that, just putting the question out there.
- Merging through which tree ? I'm more then willing to merge this
through the sunxi tree, but it does touch some generic ARM files, so if people prefer another merging strategy let me know.
I'm OK with now'ish and the sunxi tree, this seems both important enough and well thought out enough to be safe enough to grab here.
