2017-08-03 | powerpc: Remove old unused icswx based coprocessor support | Benjamin Herrenschmidt | |
We have a whole pile of unused code to maintain the ACOP register, allocate coprocessor PIDs and handle ACOP faults. This mechanism was used for the HFI adapter on POWER7 which is dead and gone and whose driver never went upstream. It was used on some A2 core based stuff that also never saw the light of day. Take out all that code. There is still some POWER8 coprocessor code that uses icswx but it's kernel only and thus doesn't use any of that infrastructure.

2011-11-25 | powerpc: Split ICSWX ACOP and PID processing | Jimi Xenidis | |
Some processors, like embedded, that already have a PID register that is managed by the system. This patch separates the ACOP and PID processing into separate files so that the ACOP code can be shared.
