[PATCHv2 3/3] ARM: Work around faulty ISAR0 register in some Krait CPUs

From: Stephen Boyd
Date: Mon Mar 18 2013 - 14:29:50 EST


From: Stepan Moskovchenko <stepanm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some early versions of the Krait CPU design incorrectly indicate
that they only support the UDIV and SDIV instructions in Thumb
mode when they actually support them in ARM and Thumb mode. It
seems that these CPUs follow the DDI0406B ARM ARM which has two
possible values for the divide instructions field, instead of the
DDI0406C document which has three possible values.

Work around this problem by checking the MIDR against Krait CPUs
with this faulty ISAR0 register and force the hwcaps to indicate
support in both modes.

we autodetect udiv/sdiv]
