linux-stable.git/arch/arm64/include/asm/arch_timer.h, branch linux-3.9.y Linux kernel stable tree arm64: move from arm_generic to arm_arch_timer 2013-01-31T15:51:59+00:00 Mark Rutland mark.rutland@arm.com 2012-11-20T10:06:00+00:00 1aee5d7a8120cbe3eca9180ef9276d75a4f51dd2 The arch_timer driver supports a superset of the functionality of the arm_generic driver, and is not tied to a particular arch. This patch moves arm64 to use the arch_timer driver, gaining additional functionality in doing so, and removes the (now unused) arm_generic driver. Timer-related hooks specific to arm64 are moved into arch/arm64/kernel/time.c.
