As usual they are just keeping it out of mainline, and this
is adding sched_clock() and other goodies so should
probably be upstreamed ASAP.

This is what I initially submitted here.
Ah. I missed part of the start of the discussion it seems.
But Arnd wanted to see a smaller patch which only fixes gemini timer issue
(t.i. shed clock being 100Hz instead of 25MHz).
Also I've submitted 4.1 support yesterday, but patches didn't change much
comparing to 3.18
On the other hand I think the bigger patch is OK actually.

I rewrote the timer support some time back and did not get
anyone to test it properly at the time, so the patch went in
untested. So this is a fix.

I think this should be applied as-is since you can actually
test the whole thing on real hardware, and also add:

Fixes: f3372c01816e "ARM: gemini: convert to GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS"
Reviewed-by: Linus Walleij <redacted>
I would love to see all those patches/drivers in mainline - tell me where do
I submit all that :)
I recently looked at some of the patch stacks in OpenWRT and
get a bit sad that the stuff did not go upstream, so I am ready
to help in any way I can.

Anything GPIO related I am ready to help in reviewing/applying
and I will also help out with ARM32 if I can. Sadly I do not have
a Gemini system.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
