We should add a mechanism to prevent re-parsing the same entries
multiple times (in case this function is called with the same
signature multiple times). We could create a separate table of device
entries, per-subsystem, that we want to parse (irqchip specific table,
timers, etc.) instead of adding all the devices to the same table (ie
linker section), you can do this already with the current patchset by
just choosing different table names as DT does.
We may also want to extend this set so that it can be used to parse the
same table, same subtype multiple times at different stages in the boot
path (but let's first see if it is a) really needed b) feasible).
Basically it is to avoid parsing the MADT multiple times:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-May/340267.html
Those can be extensions to the current patchset (because basically
they are not real issues at present), it is just a heads-up.
Thanks for putting it together !
