Currently we still perform updating of the device tree after a suspend or
migration from drmgr in userspace through the ugly /proc/ppc64/ofdt interface.
Code exists to do this update from within the kernel, but testing revealed it
to be severely broken to the point that the system hardlocks up stuck in an
infinite loop with irqs disabled.
The first 4 patches in the series fix several issues encountered tyring to
perform node property updates as dictated by the ibm,update-properties rtas
call. The next 2 patches refactor the logic of dlpar_configure_connector to
enusre that nodes created in a device nodes subtree are initialized
correctly. The remainder of the patchset fixes a couple problems with node
removal.
Tyrel Datwyler (8):
powerpc/pseries: fix creation of loop in device node property list
powerpc/pseries: fix over writing of rtas return code in
update_dt_node
powerpc/pseries: pack update_props_workarea to map correctly to rtas
buffer header
powerpc/pseries: fix parsing of initial node path in update_dt_node
powerpc/pseries: do all node initialization in dlpar_parse_cc_node
powerpc/pseries: make dlpar_configure_connector parent node aware
powerpc/pseries: add mising of_node_put in delete_dt_node
powerpc/pseries: child nodes are not detached by dlpar_detach_node
