[U-Boot] [PATCH] arm: pxa: config option for PXA270 turbo mode
PXA270 CPU has turbo mode. The mode is 2.5 times faster than the default run mode. Activating the mode early significantly speeds up boot process.

What's the difference? Where does this macro get used ?

Difference -- approx. 2.5 times faster system.
Who uses it -- ex. LP-8x4x board, support for which I am trying to merge in a separate patch. Any PXA27X board can use it.

Why don't you enable it globally then ?

It increases power consumption proportionally. Not everyone would agree with this. Especially those with portable devices may rightfully object.
It is up to you to enable it globally. I could alter the patch to switch turbo mode on by default and provide an option to disable it.

Actually, I wonder if Linux's cpufreq still does depend on bootloader speed settings. Especially the turbo bit. Can you please check that? It'd be interesting to know ...
I'd say enable it by default ... I probably have all the PXA devices supported in U-Boot and I'm quite sure none of them will mind ;-)

Still, I'm surprised it wasn't enabled. I recall seeing it enabled. Weird ...

Yes, you are right. Linux's cpufreq-pxa2xx.c always sets the turbo bit.
However, if CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is not set (my case), bootloader's settings are used.
I work on a system that has focus on low latency (industrial controller) rather than battery life (since it has no battery).

So why not just make this patch into
-(2) +(0xb)
instead of adding new (and undocumented ...) macro?
