Binding documentation is supposed to go into its own patch:

I've used a SysTick based implementation on my stm32 branch myself, but
looking at efm32 I got the impression that it would be better to use one
of the 32-bit TIM2/TIM5 as clocksource and the other as clockevents?

Still this implementation will be handy to have, also for other targets.

Andreas
