Extend the kernel-bootloader interface documentation with usage of register INFORM1 (0x0804) and different CPU resume address on Exynos542x family (with Multi-Cluster Power Management enabled). Additionally add glossary and reformat section titles. Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski.k@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The document tries to describe currently used interface between Linux kernel
|
|
and boot loaders on Samsung Exynos based boards. This is not a definition
|
|
of interface but rather a description of existing state, a reference
|
|
for information purpose only.
|
|
|
|
In the document "boot loader" means any of following: U-boot, proprietary
|
|
SBOOT or any other firmware for ARMv7 and ARMv8 initializing the board before
|
|
executing kernel.
