[PATCH] x86/mrst: parse SFI timer table for all timer configs

From: Alan Cox
Date: Tue Nov 09 2010 - 06:49:17 EST


(Rebased for the move of mrst.c into platform/mrst)

From: Jacob Pan <jacob.jun.pan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Penwell has APB timer based watchdog timers, it requires platform code to parse
SFI MTMR tables in order to claim its timer.

This patch will always parse SFI MTMR regardless of system timer configuration
choices. Otherwise, SFI MTMR table may not get parsed if running on Medfield
with always-on local APIC timers and constant TSC. Watchdog timer driver will
then not get a timer to use.
