    PSCI: Remove references to affinity based power management · 4067dc31
    Soby Mathew authored
    As per Section 4.2.2. in the PSCI specification, the term "affinity"
    is used in the context of describing the hierarchical arrangement
    of cores. This often, but not always, maps directly to the processor
    power domain topology of the system. The current PSCI implementation
    assumes that this is always the case i.e. MPIDR based levels of
    affinity always map to levels in a power domain topology tree.
    
    This patch is the first in a series of patches which remove this
    assumption. It removes all occurences of the terms "affinity
    instances and levels" when used to describe the power domain
    topology. Only the terminology is changed in this patch. Subsequent
    patches will implement functional changes to remove the above
    mentioned assumption.
