[PATCH 08/10] clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Remove fsl-a008585 parameter

From: Daniel Lezcano <hidden>
Date: 2017-02-08 23:25:22
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm architected timer driver, clocksource, clockevent drivers, documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Mark Rutland, Marc Zyngier, Daniel Lezcano, Thomas Gleixner, Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

From: Ding Tianhong <redacted>

Having a command line option to flip the errata handling for a
particular erratum is a little bit unusual, and it's vastly superior to
pass this in the DT. By common consensus, it's best to kill off the
command line parameter.
