[PATCH 0/2] ARM: OMAP3/4: cpuidle - misc fixes

2012-05-04 Thread Daniel Lezcano
These two patches are coming from the series I previously sent for the cpuidle OMAP3/4 cleanups. The first one, move the powerdomain lookup check in the init function, the second one fix the linkage error, when the CONFIG_PM is not set while CONFIG_CPU_IDLE is. Omap's Kconfig has been modified to

2012-05-04 Thread Daniel Lezcano
Define a CPU_IDLE section in the makefile, declare the functions in the header files conforming to the kernel coding rules and remove the 'define's in the C files. CONFIG_PM is enabled when CPU_IDLE is enabled because the cpuidle drivers use some functions from the pm subsystem. Signed-off-by: Da

All, not to muddy the waters, but think about where we'd like to be in the future - able to build support for several platforms into one kernel. Device tree is one of the mechanisms to help achieve that as it helps us move away from code laboriously adding the same devices in per platform w
