interrupt might be specified, meaning that all local timers use the same
per processor interrupt.
+Optional properties:
+
+- use-cp15-phys-counter : set to advise mct clocksource driver to use ARM
+ arch timer 64-bit counter as main counter. Access to this coprocessor
+ counter is faster than access to same counter in mct mmio region.
+ It was discovered that mct and ARM arch timer are same underlying hardware
+ on some SoCs.
+ Only supported for Exynos5-based 32-bit systems which follow the ARMv7
+ architecture.

Example 1: In this example, the IP contains two local timers, using separate
interrupts, so two local timer interrupts have been specified,
in addition to four global timer interrupts.
