X-Git-Tag: v3.19-rc1~169^2~6^2~11
X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2a61cba71fba5b73b11e0de665869a6ee619af0e;p=linux.git

ARM: vf610: Add ARM Global Timer clocksource option

Add the ARM Global Timer as clocksource/scheduler clock option and
use it as default scheduler clock. This leaves the PIT timer for
other users e.g. the secondary Cortex-M4 core. Also, the Global Timer
has double the precission (running at pheripheral clock compared to
IPG clock) and a 64-bit incrementing counter register. We still keep
the PIT timer as an secondary option in case the ARM Global Timer is
not available.
