> dmtimer adaptation to platform_driver.
>
> This patch series is adaptation of dmtimer code to platform driver
> using omap_device and omap_hwmod abstraction.
>
> Tested on following platforms:
> OMAP4430, OMAP3430, OMAP3630, OMAP2430
> OMAP2420, OMAP1710(in-progress)
While validating on OMAP1710 I discovered that probe() is not triggered.
I will fix this problem in the next series.
