+Subject: [PATCH] ARM: BCM5301X: Disable MMU and Dcache during decompression
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Broadcom devices have broken CFE (bootloader) that leaves hardware in an
+invalid state. It causes problems with booting Linux. On Northstar
+devices kernel was randomly hanging in ~25% of tries during early init.
+Hangs used to happen at random places in the start_kernel. On BCM53573
+kernel doesn't even seem to start booting.
+
+To workaround this problem we need to do following very early:
+1) Clear 2 following bits in the SCTLR register:
+#define CR_M (1 << 0) /* MMU enable */
+#define CR_C (1 << 2) /* Dcache enable */
+2) Flush the whole D-cache
+3) Disable L2 cache
+
+Unfortunately this patch is not upstreamable as it does above things
+unconditionally. We can't check if we are running on Broadcom platform
+in any safe way and doing such hacks with ARCH_MULTI_V7 is unacceptable
+as it could break other devices support.
