The patchset fixes some warnings reported by the kernel during boot.

The cache size info is from Processor_Datasheet_v2XX.pdf [1], Section
2.2.1 Master Processor.

The cache line size and the set-associative info are from Cortex-A53
Documentation [2].

From the doc, it can be concluded that L1 i-cache is 4-way assoc, L1
d-cache is 2-way assoc and L2 cache is 16-way assoc. Calculate the dts
props accordingly.

Also, to use KVM's VGIC code, GICH, GICV registers spaces and maintenance
IRQ are added to the dts with verification.

May someone apply this patchset to their tree so that it can land in 
stable at the end? This is a fix, not adding new functionalities. It's 
been 2 weeks already.

Sorry for the delay, I am too busy to catch up with this cycle.
I will go through this patch set and maybe apply it during the next cycle.

It's merge window, what do you expect to happen now? Please observe the
process timelines.

For arm-soc usually the cut-off is around rc6. When did you send it?
Week before rc6, so a bit late.

Anyway, I bookmarked this patchset, so if no one applies within some
time after merge window, I'll take it.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

No problem. I'm just a bit worried if this patch is getting lost. It's 
good to know it's still maintained. Because i've seen some maintainers 
not reviewing any patches for over 1 year already, with their names and 
emails still in MAINTAINERS.


By the way, I think fixes and new features are in different cycles? Most 
maintainers seem to have multiple branches to handle this.

Yes, they can be in different cycle. But now is the merge window.

It's rc3 and almost one month after last ping/talk, so apparently these got
lost. I'll take them, but let me know if this should go via different tree.

Thanks a lot. From my experience, i think this should go via HiSilicon's 
tree first(which stalls now), then go to SOC tree 
(git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc.git), finally in 
torvald's tree. This was the case for some qcom dts changes about 1yr ago.
