OK. Now I'm confused :) We may have several different configurations here:

1) CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU and CONFIG_ARM_PSCI are not set.
    In this case keystone arch needs to have
    keystone_smp_boot_secondary();

2) CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and CONFIG_ARM_PSCI is not set.
    keystone_smp_boot_secondary() is required and non PSCI
    implementation of keystone_cpu_die() is also required.

3) CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is not set and CONFIG_ARM_PSCI=y
4) CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and CONFIG_ARM_PSCI=y

    How do I boot secondary CPUs in cases of 3 and 4?
    Do I need to implement PSCI version of the
    keystone_smp_boot_secondary() of adding PSCI commands to DTB is
    enough?

    Do I need to implement keystone_cpu_die() if PSCI commands are
    added to DTB?

Thanks,
Vitaly
