Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Commit 3251885285e1 ("ARM: OMAP4+: Reset CPU1 properly for kexec") started
unconditionally resetting CPU1 because of a kexec boot issue I was seeing
earlier on omap4 when doing kexec boot between two different kernel
versions.
This caused issues on some systems. We should only reset CPU1 as a last
resort option, and try to avoid it where possible. Doing an unconditional
CPU1 reset causes issues for example when booting a bootloader configured
secure OS running on CPU1 as reported by Andrew F. Davis <afd@ti.com>.
We can't completely remove the reset of CPU1 as it would break kexec
booting from older kernels. But we can limit the CPU1 reset to cases
where CPU1 is wrongly parked within the memory area used by the booting
kernel. Then later on we can add support for parking CPU1 for kexec out
of the SDRAM back to bootrom.
So let's first fix the regression reported by Andrew by making CPU1 reset
conditional. To do this, we need to:
1. Save configured AUX_CORE_BOOT_1 for later
2. Modify AUX_CORE_BOOT_0 reading code to for HS SoCs to return
the whole register instead of the CPU mask
3. Check if CPU1 is wrongly parked into the booting kernel by the
previous kernel and reset if needed

Though cpsw doesn't support EEE feature, Atheros 8035 provides
automatic EEE support that is enabled by default. This causes
occasional link drops when link partner also announces EEE support.
These link drops occur on both 100Mbit/s and 1000Mbit/s speeds.
So disable EEE advertising completely.

The manufacturing information is stored in the EEPROM. This chip
is an AT24C64 not not (nor has it ever been) 24C02. This patch will
correctly address the EEPROM to read the entire contents and not just
256 bytes (of 0xff).

of_find_node_by_name() drops the reference to the passed device node.
The commit referenced above exposes this problem.
To fix the problem, use of_get_child_by_name() instead of
of_find_node_by_name(); of_get_child_by_name() does not drop
the reference count of passed device nodes. While semantically
different, we only look for immediate children of the passed
device node, so of_get_child_by_name() is a more appropriate
function to use anyway.
Release the reference to the device node obtained with
of_get_child_by_name() after it is no longer needed to avoid
another device node leak.
While at it, clean up the code and change the return type of
omap3xxx_hwmod_is_hs_ip_block_usable() to bool to match its use
and the return type of of_device_is_available().
