Thx for the report Randy. I'm calling out Mellanox folks to see if they can provide a fixup, else we will revert the corresponding change.

@Elad, upstream commit 3f9cd874dcc8705 "ARC: [plat-eznps] avoid toggling of DPC register" added reference to struct nps_host_reg_aux_dpc but the definition is missing. Can you please provide a fixup as I have no idea of that platform specific struct.

@ Leon, reaching our to you, since it seems you removed Elad from MAINTAINERS file, so I'm not sure if he is still at Mellanox.
The two folks I worked with on EZCHiip Linux port Noam Camus and Gilad have left Mellanox.
If you or someone from Mellanox are interested in maintaining this platform, please update the arch/arc/plat-eznps section of MAINTAINERS file.


Thx,
-Vineet
