** Description changed:

- The TANGO platform is enabled by default in the multiplatform ARM
- kernel. However, it calls __initcall in arch/arm/mach-tango/pm.c without
- a check whether it actually runs on this hw. This causes an OOPS during
- suspend on my Tegra platform. Please disable this (multiplatform
- incompatible) arch.
+ Impact:
+ 
+ The TANGO platform (an embedded soc used in home entertainment,
+ connectivity and control devices) is enabled by default in the generic
+ arm kernel. During kernel bootup, the tango platform blindly registers
+ its pm ops in arch/arm/mach-tango/pm.c via initcalls() (without checking
+ whether it's actually running on the correspondent hardware) and this
+ causes OOPS during suspend on tegra platforms since the tango pm .enter
+ function directly pokes the underlying hardware.
+ 
+ Given the narrow scope of this SOC, i propose to disable support for the
+ TANGO arch.
+ 
+ Fix:
+ 
+ Apply the attached patch and recompile.
+ 
+ How to test:
+ 
+ Suspend the tegra board and chek that it worked.
