Hi Simon, Magnus,
This patch series migrates the DT-based generic r8a7740 platform and
the armadillo legacy platform from calling l2x0_of_init() to the
generic l2c OF initialization.
Changes in v2:
- Fix interrupt reference in DT,
- Describe L2 better in DT,
- Keep only {,~}L2C_AUX_CTRL_SHARED_OVERRIDE in
machine_desc.l2c_aux_{val,mask}, as there's no DT property for
this.
- Add L1 cache to DT.
Dependencies:
- The first patch depends on r8a7740 DT PM Domain support (tag
renesas-dt2-for-v3.20 in Simon's repository),
- Although there are separate patches for dtsi, SoC code, and board code,
there are dependencies among the individual patches:
- patches 2, 3, and 5 depend on patch 1,
- patch 4 depends on patches 2 and 3 (and thus 1).
Note that this conversion should be done on sh73a0, r8a7778, and r8a7779,
too.
This was tested on armadillo-legacy and armadillo-multiplatform.
Thanks!

Add the missing cache-controller node. This will allow migration to the
generic l2c OF initialization.
The L2 cache is an ARM L2C-310 (r3p1-150rel0), of size 256 KiB (32 KiB x
8 ways).

This depends on "ARM: shmobile: r8a7740 dtsi: Add PM domain support"
due to the pd_a3sm reference.
v2:
- Fix interrupt (should be 3 cells, not 1),
- Describe cache better.

I'd hope we could avoid having any overrides in here that are not
specified in DT. I can never remember what we discussed about particular
bits in the past though. Is this bit something we could add a binding
for, or could we make it enabled by default?
I assume you have to add it because the boot loader sets the wrong
default, right?

Indeed. Note that I only try to preserve the register value before and after
migrating to generic l2c OF initialization. I did read (part of) the pl310
documentation, but it's still not clear to me if we really need
L2C_AUX_CTRL_SHARED_OVERRIDE. Perhaps this was just copied from
somewhere else without much afterthought?

Have you checked what the hardware/bootloader actually sets in that bit?
Maybe you can remove that override completely and the initial Linux
default was just set to the same that is already set on powerup?

Yes, it boots with 0x02040000, i.e. L2C_AUX_CTRL_SHARED_OVERRIDE
(bit 22) is not set.
After the l2c driver is finished with it, it contains 0x46440001.

I see. I guess someone understand the effect of this flag.
Does it make a difference on the machine you are looking at?
I've read the spec at http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0246a/DDI0246A_l2cc_pl310_r0p0_trm.pdf
on the topic but couldn't make sense of it to understand whether a
particular setting might be required for specific hardware or might
be a performance optimization.

Nope. I booted it without, too. No obvious differences.
