The OMAP DMTIMERs can generate an interrupt when the timer counter value matches the value stored in the timer's match register. When using this feature spurious interrupts were seen, because the compare logic is being enabled before the match value is loaded and according to the documentation the match value must be loaded before the compare logic is enable.
The reset value for the timer counter and match registers is 0 and hence, by enabling the compare logic before the actual match value is loaded a spurious interrupt can be generated as the reset values match.
