[U-Boot] [PATCH] davinci: Rewrite timer.c to use tbl/tbu emulation variables in gd

[U-Boot] [PATCH] davinci: Rewrite timer.c to use tbl/tbu emulation variables in gd

[Nick Thompson]

This change allows the davinci timer functions to be used before
relocation since it avoids using static variables prior to BSS being
made available.

The code is based on that used in the at91 timers, modified to use
a davinci specific hardware timer. It also maintains reset_timer()
to allow deprecated timer usage to continue to work (for example,
in nand_base.c)

Applies cleanly to v2010.12-rc2 on top of
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73758/

Tested on da850evm w/o any config changes. This fixes the freeze on
boot: 10/10 times.

You're awesome, Nick!

just one minor checkpatch.pl warning; should be (unsigned long long)
-- no space before ')'

I thought it sounded like the problem you where having. Glad it helps.

Thanks for the Tested-by.

Good spot. I've fixed that locally and will submit a v2 if the depending
patch finds favour - Alternative approaches have been suggested, this one
is *my* short-term favourite.

Thanks,
Nick.

I applied this patch on top of http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/73758/
and tested on DM365 without any config changes. Now the board boots fine
without any hang.
