From: Bastian Hecht <hechtb@googlemail.com> To: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Use generic helper scu_power_mode() Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 10:58:19 +0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <1351162702-8391-1-git-send-email-hechtb@gmail.com> (raw) In-Reply-To: <1351068858-7255-1-git-send-email-hechtb@gmail.com> Reposted to include the arch/arm mailing list. The shmobile series implements its own code for setting the SCU power register of the ARM MPCore. It uses 32-bit wide access and thus needs locking as multiple CPUs might access it simultaneously for change. There is already a small helper function that avoids the overhead by using 8-bit wide access: As every CPU only accesses its own field we can drop the lock and use it.
