omap3: Introduce OMAP3630
OMAP3630 is the latest in the family of OMAP3 devices
and among the changes it introduces are:
New OPP levels for new voltage and frequency levels. a bunch of
Bug fixes to various modules feature additions, notably with ISP,
sDMA etc.
Details about the chip is available here:
http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wtbu/wtbuproductcontent.tsp?templateId=6123&navigationId=12836&contentId=52606
Strategy used:
Strategy to introduce this device into Linux was discussed here:
Ref: http://marc.info/?t=125343303400003&r=1&w=2
Two approaches were available:
a) Consider 3630 generation of devices as a new family of silicon
b) Consider 3630 as an offshoot of 3430 family of devices
As a common consensus, (b) seems to be more valid for 3630 as:
* There are changes which are easily handled by using "FEATURES"
infrastructure.
For details how to do this, see thread:
http://marc.info/?t=125050998500001&r=1&w=2
* Most of existing 34xx infrastructure can be reused(almost 90%+)
- so no ugly if (cpu_is_omap34xx() || cpu_is_omap36xx())
all over the place
- lesser chance of bugs due to reuse of proven code flow
- 36xx specific handling can still be done where required
within the existing infrastructure
NOTE:
* If additional 34xx series are added, OMAP3430_REV_ESXXXX can be
added on top of the existing 3630 ones are renumbered
This patch was tested on SDP3430, boot tested on 3630 platform using
3430sdp defconfig
