And this point I'm not sure I'm following. Why exactly does disabling
ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET cause boot failures? Could you expand on the
details here?
You should just end up using the jiffies clocksource, which would give
you low-res HZ granular timestamps, but shouldn't get in the way of booting.
