This patchset:
    (1)Preparation for adding GTDT support in arm_arch_timer:
        1. Move some enums and marcos to header file;
        2. Add a new enum for spi type;
        3. Improve printk relevant code;
        4. Rename some enums and defines;
        5. Rework PPI determination;
        6. Rework counter frequency detection;
        7. Refactor arch_timer_needs_probing, move it into DT init call
        8. Introduce some new structs and refactor the MMIO timer init code
        for reusing some common code.

    (2)Introduce ACPI GTDT parser: drivers/acpi/arm64/acpi_gtdt.c
    Parse all kinds of timer in GTDT table of ACPI:arch timer,
    memory-mapped timer and SBSA Generic Watchdog timer.
    This driver can help to simplify all the relevant timer drivers,
    and separate all the ACPI GTDT knowledge from them.

    (3)Simplify ACPI code for arm_arch_timer

    (4)Add GTDT support for ARM memory-mapped timer.

This patchset has been tested on the following platforms with ACPI enabled:
    (1)ARM Foundation v8 model
Once v4.10-rc4 comes out this weekend, could you please rebase and
repost this?
Yes, of course.

I have rebased v19 to the latest v4.10-rc3-e96f8f1, it dosen't need
any modification.
I will rebase it every day, and will repost it if it need any  modification.

But for now, V19 works well with the master branch of upstream kernel.
Do I need to re-post it even if it doesn't need any improvement or
modification? :-)
Marc and I will be happy to take a look then.
Great thanks for your help!
Thanks,
Mark.
