[RFC PATCH] arm: move timer init to late_timer_init

[RFC PATCH] arm: move timer init to late_timer_init

[Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD]

and add global early device init
this will init earlytimer and will try to probe 1 or 2 timers for clockevents
and clocksource

This will also allow to share timer cross arch such as sh-mobile and sh

all arm timers will be update to early device step by step

tested on at91sam9263-ek, at91rm9200-ek and qemu versatilepb

[RFC PATCH] arm: move timer init to late_timer_init

Why should this change the positioning of sched_clock initialization
too?

You know, to spend time sorting out the sched_clock crap that platform
people came up with, to get sched_clock working at the right point in
the init sequence so that everything is happy, and then to have all
that work undone one kernel version later... well, why did I even bother.

so is it ok to put the early init in time_init for you?

this the key point here

remove the sys_timer struct and switch to early device

Best Regards,
J.

[RFC PATCH] arm: add global early device init

[Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD]

this will init earlytimer and will try to probe 1 or 2 timers for clockevents
and clocksource

This will also allow to share timer cross arch such as sh-mobile and sh

all arm timers will be update to early device step by step

tested on at91sam9263-ek, at91rm9200-ek and qemu versatilepb

If it works there, then there's no problem.  I'm just left wondering why
you decided to try the late_time_init() thing in the first place.  Was
there a specific reason?

Magnus or Paul will answer better than me
IIRC on sh it's was because the timer init the IRQ too early

but on sh-mobile not sure

I test it on at91 with pit and st timers and I get no issue

Best Regards,
J.

[V3 PATCH] arm: add global early device init

[Jean-Christophe PLAGNIOL-VILLARD]

this will init earlytimer and will try to probe 1 or 2 timers for clockevents
and clocksource

This will also allow to share timer cross arch such as sh-mobile and sh

all arm timers will be update to early device step by step

on ARM sh-mobile we do not need to use the late_time_init
as the irq are setup before the probe of the timers

tested on at91sam9263-ek, at91rm9200-ek

V3:
	now we can do not specify the .timer at all
	and just realy on the early device

	on ARM sh-mobile we do not need to use the late_time_init
	as the irq are setup before the probe of the timers

	the only remaing question is is ok to move the clock_init in the
	.init_early on sh-mobile

	this patch depends on [PATCH] shmobile: fix map_io init usage

Best Regards,
J.
