Thanks for pointing this out. I think we just cannot make any
assumption about the versions of the tools used. Based on this, I have
made a v2 of the patch against linux-3.7-rc1. I am not touching the
CFLAGS in the patch as I am not familiar with the three ARM boards
here.
Can the respective board maintainers
(mach-exynos/mach-realveiw/mach-shmobile) give any comments about v2
of the patch?
Thanks.

v2: Define opcode of the ARM "WFI" instruction in the right way.
