+Atmel AT91 device tree bindings.
+================================
+
+PIT Timer required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "atmel,at91sam9260-pit"
+- reg: Should contain registers location and length
+- interrupts: Should contain interrupt for the PIT which is the IRQ line
+  shared across all System Controller members.
