Hi! I'm currently trying to add some code to stop (DMA) buffer usage in the Marvell mvpp2 ethernet driver, that should only be executed once, before the OS is started - stop() does not work easily for me here. I've found the weak function "board_quiesce_devices()", which is already used for such cases. But since you are not fond of weak functions (I totally agree here, this is far from perfect) and already suggested some kind of "finalize" DM API call, I'm wondering if I should introduce this new API call for such cases and use it in the ethernet driver.
So what is your opinion about this? Should I add such a finalize DM function and call it from the arch/.../bootm code? Or do you have other suggestions on how to handle such driver specific last-stage (pre OS) calls?
