The clocksource and the sched_clock provided by the arm_global_timer are quite unstable because their rates depend on the cpu frequency. On the other side, the arm_global_timer has a higher rating than the rockchip_timer, it will be selected by default by the time framework while we want to use the stable rockchip clocksource. Let's disable the arm_global_timer in order to have the rockchip clocksource selected by default. Signed-off-by: Alexander Kochetkov <redacted>
depending on who is picking that up, they can add my Reviewed-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@sntech.de> if needed. Later on we might need to look at the rk3066 as well, as it might have the same issue.
