Nicolas Pitre writes: This is the first part of the patch series adding IKS (In-Kernel Switcher) support for big.LITTLE system architectures. This consists of the core patches only. Extra patches to come later will introduce various optimizations and tracing support. Those patches were posted on the list a while ago here: http://news.gmane.org/group/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/thread=253942
