-------- Original Message --------
On TC2, to maximise power savings, it helps to affine the IRQs to the A7s. Now
that the cpu to parts mapping is available via /proc/cpuinfo, this patch
introduces a script to parse this file and build a mask of particular CPU type
and change the IRQ affinity to this mask.
The patch also makes the necessary changes to platform specific init script to
call above script and affine the IRQs to the A7s.
Lastly, it changes the makefile to include the new script in the target.

Hi Tixy,
I am not quite sure where to send this patch to get it included in Linaro. But
you seem to have a few patches in this repo, so maybe you can apply this one.
Let me know if you have any feedback on this as well. I would be happy to
incorporate that as long as the intent of the patches carries through.
Thanks,
Punit
