I just did git log arch/arm/mach-actions but I think it came in quite some time
ago, not last merge window:

But you see:
commit 6c2eb3e76fb84e2eb46d484f71fab469c0d9532c
"ARM: owl: smp: Drop owl_secondary_boot()"
commit bad29933fef76fb6ee577f4a0b6d145c1f52f663
"ARM: owl: smp: Use __pa_symbol()"
commit 18cfd9429d8a82c49add8f3ca9d366599bfcac45
"ARM: owl: smp: Drop bogus holding pen"

platsmp.c looks just fine these days. Except for what Wei's patch is fixing,
of_node_put().

Yours,
Linus Walleij
