The content of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online  is still 1 for those
CPUs that the switcher has removed even though the global state in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/online is updated correctly.

It turns out that commit 0902a9044f ("Driver core: Use generic
offline/online for CPU offline/online") has changed the way those files
retrieve their content by relying on on the generic attribute handling
code.  The switcher, by calling cpu_down() directly, bypasses this
handling and the attribute value doesn't get updated.

Fix this by calling device_offline()/device_online() instead.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
 "Seems like we've had more fixes than usual this release cycle, but
  there's nothing in particular that we're doing differently.  Perhaps
  it's just one of those cycles where more people are finding more
  regressions (and/or that the latency of when people actually test
  what's been in the tree for a while is catching up so that we get the
  bug reports now).

  The bigger changes here are are for TI and Marvell platforms:
   * Timing changes for GPMC (generic localbus) on OMAP causing some
     largeish DTS deltas.
   * Fixes to window allocation on PCI for mvebu touching drivers/
     stuff.  Patches have acks from subsystem maintainers where needed.
   * A fix from Thomas for a botched DT conversion in drivers/edma.

  There's a handful of other fixes for the above platforms as well as
  sunxi, at91, i.MX.  I also included a MAINTAINER update for Broadcom,
  and a trivial move of a binding doc.

  I know you said you'd be offline this week, but I might as well post
  it for when you return.  :)"

I'm not quite offline yet.  Doing a few pulls in the last hour before my

This is another great example of trainwreck engineering:

commit 2646a0e529 (ARM: edma: Add EDMA crossbar event mux support)
added support for using EDMA on peripherals which have no direct EDMA
event mapping.

The code compiles and does not explode in your face, but that's it.

1) Reading an u16 array from an u32 device tree array simply does not
   work. Even if the function is named "edma_of_read_u32_to_s16_array".

   It merily calls of_property_read_u16_array. So the resulting 16bit
   array will have every other entry = 0.

2) The DT entry for the xbar registers related to xbar has length 0x10
   instead of the real length: 0xfd0 - 0xf90 = 0x40.

   Not a real problem as it does not cross a page boundary, but
   wrong nevertheless.

3) But none of this matters as the mapping never happens:

   After reading nonsense edma_of_read_u32_to_s16_array() invalidates
   the first array entry pair, so nobody can ever notice the
   braindamage by immediate explosion.

Seems the QA criteria for this code was solely not to explode when
someone adds edma-xbar-event-map entries to the DT. Goal achieved,
congratulations!

Not really helpful if someone wants to use edma on a device which
requires a xbar mapping.

Fix the issues by:

- annotating the device tree entry with "/bits/ 16" as documented in
  the of_property_read_u16_array kernel doc

- make the size of the xbar register mapping correct

- invalidating the end of the array and not the start

This convoluted mess wants to be completely rewritten as there is no
point to keep the xbar_chan array memory and the iomapping of the xbar
regs around forever. Marking the xbar mapped channels as used should
be done right there.

But that's a different issue and this patch is small enough to make it
work and allows a simple backport for stable.

The switcher should not depend on MAX_CLUSTER to determine ifit should
be activated or not. In a multiplatform kernel binary it is possible to
have dual-cluster and quad-cluster platforms configured in. In that case
MAX_CLUSTER which is a build time limit should be 4 and that shouldn't
prevent the switcher from working if the kernel is booted on a b.L
dual-cluster system.

In bL_switcher_halve_cpus() we already have a runtime validation check
to make sure we're dealing with only two clusters, so booting on a quad
cluster system will be caught and switcher activation aborted.

However, the b.L switcher must ensure the MCPM layer is initialized on
the booted hardware before doing anything.  The mcpm_is_available()
function is added to that effect.

The functions in mcpm_entry.c are mostly intended for use during
scary cache and coherency disabling sequences, or do other things
which confuse trace ... like powering a CPU down and not
returning. Similarly for the backend code.

For simplicity, this patch just makes whole files notrace.
There should be more than enough traceable points on the paths to
these functions, but we can be more fine-grained later if there is
a need for it.
