The stack object should check the validity of the stack->phb pointer always.


What do you mean by "check the validity"?


I am thinking of the usage of 'stack->phb', for instance in the routine
pnv_phb4_update_regions(). We should add an assert there.

Oh ok. I'll add an assert in this point (and in the code above that where you
also pointed it out.

And about pnv_phb4_update_regions(), v3 will need to handle it but not with
an assert but with a phb != NULL verification to become a NO-OP if phb is NULL.
It's an easier and less intrusive fix than trying to change the order of the
XSCOM initialization in stk_realize().

I will (hopefully) explain it better in the v3.


Thanks,

Your changes seem to cleanup the stack <-> phb relation quite a lot. Which
is good.

Thanks,
