Subject: [PATCH 0/2] memory: brcmstb: dpfe: skip downloading firmware

From: Markus Mayer <mmayer@...adcom.com>

This series lets the DPFE driver skip the DPFE firmware download if the
DCPU is already running. If it's running by the time Linux comes up, it
means the boot loader already downloaded the DPFE firmware.

Markus Mayer (2):
  memory: brcmstb: dpfe: introduce is_dcpu_enabled()
  memory: brcmstb: dpfe: skip downloading firmware when possible
