The power management related assembly needs to interact with
ARM mode bootrom code, so we need to keep most of the related
assembly in ARM mode.

Currently we are entering into and ARM mode assembly function
from thumb2 mode, so we need to make sure we switch to ARM
mode. And we need to do that again after the cache flush.

Kevin told me about this earlier today.. Anybody got better ideas
for a fix here?

And for full boot log/panics, see the kernelci.org thumb2 kernel boots
that fail: http://kernelci.org/boot/?THUMB2_KERNEL&fail

FWIW, a quick test of this patch makes my omap3-beagle-xm pass a simple
boot test, but it fails with off idle.

Thanks to Stephen Boyd's suggestion of checking the missing ENDPROC,
here's a better fix :) Now off idle works too.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP3: Fix booting with thumb2 kernel

We get a NULL pointer dereference on omap3 for thumb2 compiled kernels:

The power management related assembly on moaps needs to interact with
ARM mode bootrom code, so we need to keep most of the related assembly
in ARM mode.

Turns out this error is because of missing ENDPROC for assembly code
as suggested by Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>. Let's add the
missing ENDPROC in two places to sleep34xx.S, and also remove the
earlier mystery code that was probably also caused by missing ENDPROC
for earlier kernels.

Yup, boot test is now passing for me on omap3-beagle, omap3-beagle-xm,
omap3-n900, omap3-overo-tobi, omap3-overo-storm-tobi.

Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@linaro.org>

Thanks for the quick fix.

Next step is to look at the exynos4412-odroidu3 failure which probably
has a similar cause.

Thanks, fixed now. I also added a link for why ENDPROC is needed to the
description. I'll apply the patch below into fixes today.

^ This looks unrelated to the issue?  This code is simply unnecessary
after Russell introduced the "ret" macro in commit 6ebbf2ce43.  That
made v7_flush_dcache_all do a proper interworking return.

It should probably be in a separate commit, or at least mentioned
explicitly in the commit log.

The ENDPROC()s look appropriate here.

Thanks, I've updated the description with the commit info above.

I'll keep the removal of the duplicate code in this patch, as it's
all related to the mode switching and we don't want to do it twice.

Will keep that too, the local variables comments are now just too
confusing while reading the code after adding the ENDPROC. And that
too is just removal.

OK thanks for looking, I was hoping you'd check it as you did the
original thumb2 changes for this file :) Updated patch below.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: OMAP3: Fix booting with thumb2 kernel

We get a NULL pointer dereference on omap3 for thumb2 compiled kernels:

Internal error: Oops: 80000005 [#1] SMP THUMB2
...
[<c046497b>] (_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore) from [<c0024375>]

(start_kernel+0x32f/0x338)
[<c06b9a47>] (start_kernel) from [<8000807f>] (0x8000807f)

The power management related assembly on omaps needs to interact with
ARM mode bootrom code, so we need to keep most of the related assembly
in ARM mode.

Turns out this error is because of missing ENDPROC for assembly code
as suggested by Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>. Let's fix the
problem by adding ENDPROC in two places to sleep34xx.S.

Let's also remove the now duplicate custom code for mode switching.
This has been unnecessary since commit 6ebbf2ce437b ("ARM: convert
all "mov.* pc, reg" to "bx reg" for ARMv6+").

And let's also remove the comments about local variables, they are
now just confusing after the ENDPROC.

The reason why ENDPROC makes a difference is it sets .type and then
the compiler knows what to do with the thumb bit as explained at:

I have no objection to tidyups ;)

So long as the commit message is clear about which parts are bugfix and
which parts are tidyup, I'm fine with that.

I would have thought that the change is actually necessary after
6ebbf2ce43, because it now returns in ARM mode, which will cause the
"bx pc; nop" thumb instruction sequence be misinterpreted as an 
ARM instruction.

Could be it's necessary.. But alone that change is not enough.

You're right.  The THUMB2_KERNEL indeed won't work without deleting this
code.
