[PATCH 1/3] powerpc - Initialize the irq radix tree earlier

From: Sebastien Dugue
Date: Mon Aug 04 2008 - 09:58:38 EST


The radix tree used for fast irq reverse mapping by the XICS is initialized
late in the boot process, after the first interrupt (IPI) gets registered
and after the first IPI is received.

This patch moves the initialization of the XICS radix tree earlier into
the boot process in smp_xics_probe() (the mm is already up but no interrupts
have been registered at that point) to avoid having to insert a mapping into
the tree in interrupt context. This will help in simplifying the locking
constraints and move to a lockless radix tree in subsequent patches.
