Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] arm64: first set of Kconfig patches for Tegra132 support

These patches start the ARM64 Kconfig and defconfig changes to support the Tegra132 (aka Tegra K1 64-bit) SoC and the NVIDIA Norrin64 FFD board.

Tegra132 support is made conditional on CONFIG_BROKEN, since there are some patches pending for other maintainers to fix compilation when CONFIG_ARCH_TEGRA is set during an ARM64 build. Once those patches have been merged, a subsequent patch will be sent to remove the CONFIG_BROKEN dependency and to make a few other defconfig changes that are dependent on CONFIG_ARCH_TEGRA.

Quoted 4 lines

These patches apply on the arm64 fixes/core branch, commit 5d96e0cba263. They have been boot-tested on QEMU 2.2.0 AArch64, and (after other patches have been applied) have been boot-tested on the Tegra132 Norrin64 FFD board.

Whilst I'm happy to take the second patch for 3.20 (getting those dependencies building and keeping them building is a Good Thing), can we hold off on the first patch until it's not broken? Having an unconditional depends on BROKEN isn't really that useful.

Quoted 8 lines

The two patches that require the BROKEN dependency are fairly trivial, so I don't think it would be a stretch to merge them for 3.20. But they apply to different trees (one to the clocksource tree, the other to the Tegra tree).

How do you usually handle the ARM64 patches? Do you manually pick up the patches that touch arch/arm64 or would you prefer for me to collect them in a pull request?

Either is fine; if it's a large series then a pull request tends to work better. Catalin is handling the 3.20 merge window (we take it in turns).

Quoted 3 lines

Either way I could probably provide a stable branch for you to pull into the arm64 tree to resolve the build dependencies provided that Daniel or Thomas will ack the clocksource patch.

Sure; if you have dependencies in other subsystems then we'd need either an ack from the relevant subsystem maintainer or for them to publish a stable branch that we can pull in. There's not really a hard-and-fast rule for this but we can work something out.
