Re: [PATCH v2] ARM: Add imprecise abort enable/disable macro

From: Lucas Stach

Russell,

can you please revisit this patch? It got stuck in February after you
questioned if it works on anything but ARMv7M. Fabrice responded with an
E-Mail that showed that the logic in this patch is supposedly right and
it should work.

Do you still see anything wrong with this patch? It is a prerequisite
for proper PCI abort handling on a number of SoCs and I would like to
see this moving forward.

Thanks,
Lucas
