    MIPS: smp-cps: Support MIPSr6 Virtual Processors · 5a3e7c02
    Paul Burton authored
    Introduce support for bringing up Virtual Processors in MIPSr6 systems
    as CPUs, much like their VPE parallel from the now-deprecated MT ASE.
    The existing mips_cps_boot_vpes function fits the MIPSr6 architecture
    pretty well - it can now simply write the mask of running VPs to the
    VC_RUN register, rather than looping through each & starting or stopping
    as appropriate as is done for VPEs from the MT ASE. Thus the VP support
    is in general an extension & simplification of the existing MT ASE VPE
    (aka SMVP) support.
