From: Prasad Sodagudi
Date: Tue Apr 28 2020 - 16:10:46 EST


These patches introduce support for global deferrable timers and this feature is very useful
for the mobile chipsets and initial discussion link -[1]. Lastest discussion was with - [2]
as these patches are in downstream kernel for quite a long time.
