[RFC PATCH 0/7] ARM: SMP: common "pen" secondary release method

This series proposes creating a single implementation of the "pen release" (or spin-table) mechanism for starting secondary CPUs on ARM SMP systems. This mechanism is currently implemented at least 5 times in the kernel, each essentially identical to the other. There are other machines that use t
