[U-Boot] [patch] i.mx change get_timer(base) to return time since base

[U-Boot] [patch] i.mx change get_timer(base) to return time since base

[Andrew Dyer]

This patch changes get_timer() for i.MX to return the time since
'base' instead of the time since the counter was at zero.

Symptom seen is flash timeout errors when erasing or programming a
sector using the common cfi flash code.


This patch has been discussed before:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/21941

and also been done for other arm cpus:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/12390


a quick grep shows the same problem exists for
cpu/sa1100/interrupts.c, but I don't have the h/w to test it.
