Hi Bence,

Thanks for your patch.

I did a quick test on the SAMA5D4 Xplained board and observed that the 
interrupt count increments on overflow.

By the way, I came across William's response to your question, and from 
that discussion, I gather that you're working on a SAMA5D2 board. Are 
you seeing the count value increase after writing this:

echo increase > /sys/bus/counter/devices/counter0/count0/function

cat /sys/bus/counter/devices/counter0/count0/count
