Subject: x86/smp/boot: Add cmdline "cpu_init_udelay=N" to specify cpu_up() delay
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d68921f9bd148359e6d01c84aaa2e32bfbd82970;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

x86/smp/boot: Add cmdline "cpu_init_udelay=N" to specify cpu_up() delay

No change to default behavior.

Replace the hard-coded mdelay(10) in cpu_up() with a variable
udelay, that is set to a defined default -- rather than a magic
number.

Add a boot-time override, "cpu_init_udelay=N"
