Please add a commit log description. This is an important bug fix.

With the framebuffer enabled in U-boot, I get kernel hangs at
aproximately 50% of the times I boot a 2.6.35 kernel on a mx53qsb.


Ok.

Do we really need a new file to store a single function?

What about placing it at arch/arm/imx-common/cpu.c ?

That seems reasonable.

Ok.

+void arch_preboot_os(void)
+{
+#if defined(CONFIG_VIDEO_IPUV3)
+       /* disable video before launching O/S */
+       ipuv3_fb_shutdown();

The #if defined(CONFIG_VIDEO_IPUV3) could go outside of the arch_preboot_os().


That occurred to me as well, but I figured this might not be the only
bit that could/should/might be shut down prior to O/S boot (USB?) and
that this would make that clearer.

Regards,


Eric
