    ARM: OMAP4: PM: Warn users about usage of older bootloaders · 60480098
    Rajendra Nayak 提交于
    OMAP4 CHIP level PM works only with newer bootloaders. The
    dependency on the bootloader comes from the fact that the
    kernel is missing reset and initialization code for some
    devices.
    
    While the right thing to do is to add reset and init code in
    the kernel, for some co-processor IP blocks like DSP and IVA
    it means downloading firmware into each one of them to execute
    idle instructions.
    
    While a feasible solution is worked upon on how such IP blocks
    can be better handled in the kernel, in the interim, to avoid
    any further frustration to users testing PM on OMAP4 and finding
    it broken, warn them about the bootloader being a possible
    cause.
