(Why not add the file to the previous section? All this does is come up with an email
address based on the file)

of_node_put(cpu_cache); ?

(I can see why you might keep the reference in the else block)

You are doing this at probe time to create a static list of which CPUs map onto the L2
caches. cacheinfo does something very similar, but it looks like you can't use it as its
only populated for online CPUs, and you'd need to walk multiple CPUs cacheinfo leaves to
find the same information. The alternative is more complicated.

Any references held in the al_l2->l2_caches list leak here.

Do you need to roll over the al_l2->l2_caches list to of_node_put() the l2_cache's ?

Same comment on these being machine compatibles and what property that applies to.

The code to match the platform and create the platform_device is identical, is there any
way it can be shared?

I'm guessing the two-files is because these can be built as independent modules. Would
anyone ever have one, but not the other? The L1 support is optional, but you've listed the
same set of platforms in both cases here, so do we need to support one but not the other
today?


Thanks,
