Hi Thomas,

And I checked for these if()/BUG, I think we don't even need these if()/BUG constructs in codes.
For below 4 functions.
1. gic_dist_save
2. gic_dist_restore
3. gic_cpu_save
4. gic_cpu_restore
As we are checking in loop for (i = 0; i < MAX_GIC_NR; i++)
and passing i as gic_nr. So below condition never returns true for any case, i think
if (gic_nr >= MAX_GIC_NR).
So we can remove if/BUG constructs from these functions ??
5. gic_migrate_target
And also in gic_migrate_target , we initializing gic_nr = 0;
and then checking whether gic_nr >= MAX_GIC_NR.
6. gic_cascade_irq
Before calling this function we have checked the same condition in gic_init_bases
So we can also remove if()/BUG from these functions also ?
Thanks ,
Maninder
