Yes, I have tested with them successfully by looking into
`/proc/interrupts` and `top` except CPU0.

It returns "status busy" after I type the command below.

I build kernel image with 3.19-rc1 + this patchset and run into console.
I use `echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu[0-3]/online`

BTW, I run these on a real phone of sc9836 not fast-model as before.

Yes, I have confirmed this when working around the BUG() in
arch_counter_get_cntpct() introduced from 3.19.

Do you mean to declare SGI like this ?

" interrupts = <1 9 (GIC_CPU_MASK_SIMPLE(4) | IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH)> "

It's added by me.
I want to tell people the register range of what the bus covers, not
for any drivers use.
for this example, It starts from address 0 to 0x80000000.
Because Spreadtrum chip is very large with a lots of registers and matrix buses.

But I look up the ePAPER who says "The ranges property provides a
means of defining a mapping or translation...".
The bus here is flat-memory for all.

This initial patch is picked up from a very big dt file.
There are several apb buses in this chip.
So I use apb@starting-address to separate them.
But I remember another rule that the @address needs to equal first
address in property reg array.
Do I have to delete @7000000 as well if i delete reg line?
