If the options are defined in the kernel's .config file, then your board
supports them. So, there should be a next_event() and set_mode()
functions. Note however that the exact name of these functions depend on
the processor (so, it is not exactly pxa_osmr0_set_next_event and
pxa_osmr0_set_mode, as their name suggests, these functions are specific
to the pxa osmr0 timer). The effect of these options on the I-pipe board
support code is explained in the GNERIC_CLOCKEVENT / GENERIC_TIME
section in the howto.
