    octeon: disable edgerouter image · 3824fa26
    Johannes Kimmel authored
    
    This patch disables the image for edgerouter devices by default, since
    it isn't able to boot at the moment.
    
    Currently the edgerouter image won't boot. Current kernels have an
    option CONFIG_CAVIUM_CN63XXP1 that needs to be enabled for this chip.
    
    If the kernel was compiled without this option, following message is
    displayed and the machine reboots:
    
    [   36.778028] Kernel panic - not syncing: OCTEON II DCache prefetch workaround not in place (cfa0000c).
    [   36.778028] Please build kernel with proper options (CONFIG_CAVIUM_CN63XXP1).
    [   36.794398] Rebooting in 1 seconds..
    
    This was last confirmed on 2020-10-29.
    
    The description of this option states, that enabling it will possibly
    cause performance issues on other chips.
