You commit message mentions "64 bits free running counter", but this one only 
returns 32 bit.
Yeah, the callback setup by setup_sched_clock is supposed to be
returning a u32, and clocksource_mmio_init only accepts up to 32 bits as
well, so I'm only using the lower 32bits of this 64 bits counter.

I'll amend the commit log to state this.
But using 64 bit counter for sched_clock is much easier that using 32 bit one. 
You can either wait for the rest of Stephen's patch set 
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.msm/4092) before adding 64 bit, 
or you can just make the trivial change to the now generic sched_clock code.
