Yes, I know of these discussions. However, I don't think anything has
been settled yet. Some people prefer to put this info in ACPI for
example. Personally, I like the SAL approach, but the point is that
the firmware folks need to agree on something before we can start
using it.
BTW: I do not like the name "ITC_UNSYNCHRONIZED". The issue is not
synchronization (we take care of that when booting the kernel). The
issue is *drift* (and, to a secondary degree, ITC frequency).
