This patch provides bindings for the 64-bit timer in the KeyStone
architecture devices. The timer can be configured as a general-purpose
64-bit
timer, dual general-purpose 32-bit timers. When configured as dual 32-bit
timers, each half can operate in conjunction (chain mode) or
independently
(unchained mode) of each other.
This is software configurable or h/w design time configurations?

Rob

This is h/w design time configurations
Then it seems like the binding should provide for describing those
differences either with a property or different compatible strings.

Rob
Oh..sorry, seems I didn't catch, this is configurable by software.
These configurations are like modes in which timer can work
and they are not different hardware IPs. It depends on driver in
which mode it should work.
