[PATCH RT 04/11] ARM: imx: always use TWD on IMX6Q
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Tue Jul 12 2016 - 12:51:07 EST
3.12.61-rt82-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

There is no reason to limit the TWD to be used on SMP kernels only if the
hardware has it available.
On Wandboard i.MX6SOLO, running PREEMPT-RT and cyclictest I see as max
immediately after start in idle:
UP : ~90us
SMP: ~50us
UP + TWD: ~20us.
Based on this numbers I prefer the TWD over the slightly slower MXC
timer.
