From: Russell King Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2014 16:47:47 +0000 (+0000) Subject: ARM: l2c: avoid calling outer_flush_all() unnecessarily (Spear) X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=03a166e22a49350010fc398a8cb9be3e93192fef;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git ARM: l2c: avoid calling outer_flush_all() unnecessarily (Spear) Spear calls outer_flush_all() from it's SMP bringup function. This is potentially dangerous as the L2C set/way operations which implement this don't take kindly to concurrent operations. Besides, there's better solutions to this, as implemented on other platforms.
