[PATCH] dt-bindings: Add an enable method to RISC-V
From: Palmer Dabbelt
Date: Mon Nov 20 2017 - 14:50:54 EST
RISC-V doesn't currently specify a mechanism for enabling or disabling
CPUs. Instead, we assume that all CPUs are enabled on boot, and if
someone wants to save power we instead put a CPU to sleep via a WFI
loop.
This patch adds "enable-method" to the RISC-V CPU binding, which
currently only has the value "none". This allows us to change the
enable method in the future.
