SubjectSharing header files -- arch/arm/mach-generic ?
Hi!

I have new architecture I'd like to merge into the mainline. It has
some code very similar to existing plaforms (for example
real differences to mach-realview/platsmp.c are two lines.)

Is that a problem?

Should mach-generic/platsmp.c be created, so code can be better
shared? Or are the code pieces small enough that this duplication can
be ignored?

headsmp.S is another candidate for sharing. AFAICT we have 4 times
identical code in the tree already:

./mach-exynos/headsmp.S: ldmia r4, {r5, r6}
./plat-versatile/headsmp.S: ldmia r4, {r5, r6}
./mach-ux500/headsmp.S: ldmia r4, {r5, r6}
./mach-msm/headsmp.S: ldmia r4, {r5, r6}

Thoughts?
Pavel
