From 38651588d3d9a977ca457049d6357408ddad4a8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andre Przywara Date: Wed, 27 Jun 2018 01:42:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] arm: timer: factor out FSL arch timer erratum workaround MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit At the moment we have the workaround for the Freescale arch timer erratum A-008585 merged into the generic timer_read_counter() routine. Split those two up, so that we can add other errata workaround more easily. Also add an explaining comment on the way.
