Subject: [PATCH 2.6.21-rt2] PowerPC: enable HRT and dynticks support
Date: Thu, 17 May 2007 21:46:46 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200705172146.46769.sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> (raw)

Enable HRT and dynamic ticks support for PowerPC.

Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com>

---
This patch has been reworked against the 2.6.21 clockevents framework.
It has only been tested on the Book E 32-bit CPU this time, so re-testing on
"classic" PowerPC CPUs is needed (there have been issues as of 2.6.18-rt7 but
those should now be fixed)...
