The time-efm32 driver uses the clocksource MMIO functions.
Thus it needs to select CLKSRC_MMIO in Kconfig.

Pavel Machek reports that this config is exposed on x86 where the
ARM architected timers aren't even present. Make it depend on the
ARM architected timers being selected so that non-ARM builds
aren't asked about it.

<content type='text'>
Adds support to configure the rate and enable the event stream for architected
timer. The event streams can be used to impose a timeout on a wfe, to safeguard
against any programming error in case an expected event is not generated or
even to implement wfe-based timeouts for userspace locking implementations.
This feature can be disabled(enabled by default).

Since the timer control register is reset to zero on warm boot, CPU PM notifier
is added to save and restore the value.

<title>drivers: clocksource: add support for ARM architected timer event stream</title>

<id>037f637767a82907efedda78d3ff405c34020075</id>
<content type='text'>
The ARM architected timer can generate events (used for waking up
CPUs executing the wfe instruction) at a frequency represented as a
power-of-2 divisor of the clock rate.

An event stream might be used:
- To implement wfe-based timeouts for userspace locking implementations.
- To impose a timeout on a wfe for safeguarding against any programming
  error in case an expected event is not generated.

This patch computes the event stream frequency aiming for a period
of 100us between events. It uses ARM/ARM64 specific backends to configure
and enable the event stream.

  573145f08c2b92c45498468afbbba909f6ce6135
  clocksource: armada-370-xp: Use CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE

replaced a call to the driver's timer initialization by a call to
clocksource_of_init(). However, it failed to select CONFIG_CLKSRC_OF.

Fix this by selecting CONFIG_CLKSRC_OF for Armada370/XP machines.
Without this change the kernel is stuck at: 'Calibrating delay loop...'.

 "The timer changes contain:

   - posix timer code consolidation and fixes for odd corner cases

   - sched_clock implementation moved from ARM to core code to avoid
     duplication by other architectures

   - alarm timer updates

   - clocksource and clockevents unregistration facilities

   - clocksource/events support for new hardware

   - precise nanoseconds RTC readout (Xen feature)

   - generic support for Xen suspend/resume oddities

   - the usual lot of fixes and cleanups all over the place

  The parts which touch other areas (ARM/XEN) have been coordinated with
  the relevant maintainers.  Though this results in an handful of
  trivial to solve merge conflicts, which we preferred over nasty cross
  tree merge dependencies.

  The patches which have been committed in the last few days are bug
  fixes plus the posix timer lot.  The latter was in akpms queue and
  next for quite some time; they just got forgotten and Frederic
  collected them last minute."
