This is a standalone patch for the hardware semaphore feature for
all brcmstb SoCs that have the same hardware semaphore registers
hence platform driver compatible uses:
'.compatible = "brcm,brcmstb-hwspinlock"'
The patch has been tested to work as builtin as well as a module.
v3 changes:
Added detailed explantion in the all commit messages as per review
comments
- Added description of 'sundry' ip block that the hardware semaphore
belongs to
- Added reasoning for using '.compatible = "brcm,brcmstb-hwspinlock"
v2 changes:
Adressed following review comments:
- fixed ordering of obj brcmstb_hwspinlock.o in Makefile
- fixed ordering of 'config HWSPINLOCK_BRCMSTB' block in Kconfig
- Renamed BRCMSTB_MAX_SEMAPHORES to BRCMSTB_NUM_SEMAPHORES
- Removed unnecessary platfrom_set_drvdata(pdev, bank);
Also addressing duplicate PATCH 1/3 sent in error as part of v1 change.
