If the macro CONFIG_FSL_LS_PPA && CONFIG_ARMV8_PSCI is defined but the
sec firmware is invalid, the PSCI node will be removed, then the other code in 
the
function ft_fixup_cpu() will change the boot method to spin-table. Otherwise the
function ft_fixup_cpu() will return directly.

Yes, will change the name in next version.

Your suggestion is great, but I'm not sure if there is an interface to check 
the psci feature.
Will check it and update, thanks!

If the macro CONFIG_FSL_LS_PPA && CONFIG_ARMV8_PSCI isn't defined or the sec
firmware is invalid, the enable-method will be changed to spin-table in this 
function.

I don't see how you change the boot method to spin-table. It has been spin-table
all the way. Actually you change the boot method to psci when the image is 
valid.

This function name is confusing. It returns non-zero when the image is not
valid. Please consider to change the name.

Does the existence of such image guarantee it has been loaded successfully?
Would it be possible to detect the psci feature is up and running?

I see you are removing the psci nodes. Do you need to update the cpus nodes with
enable-method here? You have it done in next patch cpu_update_dt_psci().

[U-Boot] [PATCHv4 4/7] ARMv8/Layerscape: switch SMP method to spin-table when the PSCI isn't available

[Zhiqiang Hou]

From: Hou Zhiqiang 

If the PSCI and PPA is ready, skip the fixup for spin-table and
waking secondary cores. If not, change SMP method to spin-table,
and the device node of PSCI will be removed.
