With the Tegra210 timer driver, we introduce in this series, which only replace the clock event device function that was originally owned by the arch timer (armv8 timer) and it also running at the oscillator clock. The sched_timer still owns by the arch timer. So the timer resolution will be the same. That's why we choose TMR10-TMR13 as the timer for Tegra210. That maybe fine, but DT should describe the hardware and so I don't see why we would not list all the interrupts. We can still only use TMR10-13 in the driver. Okay, will list all the interrupts for each timer channel. Thanks, Joseph

I see it now, it is hard-coded in the driver. I was looking at arm64 to see where it is used. Cheers Jon -- nvpublic
