[PATCH] ARM: twd: Adjust localtimer frequency with cpufreq notifiers

From: Colin Cross
Date: Thu Nov 18 2010 - 01:15:34 EST


The clock to the ARM TWD local timer scales with the cpu
frequency. To allow the cpu frequency to change while
maintaining a constant TWD frequency, pick a lower target
frequency for the TWD and use the prescaler to divide down
to the closest lower frequency.

This patch provides a new initialization function that takes
a target TWD frequency and the ratio between the cpu
clock and the TWD clock, specified as an integer divider >= 2
in the Cortex A9 MPCore TRM, and 2 in the ARM11 MPCore TRM.
It also registers a cpufreq notifier that adjusts the
prescaler when the cpu frequency changes.
