Doing so is redundant since DW APB Timer isn't CPU-local timer, but as having APB interface is normally accessible from any CPU in the system. By artificially affiliating the DW timer to the very first CPU we may and in our case will make the clockevent subsystem to decline the more performant real CPU-local timers selection in favor of in fact non-local and accessible over a slow bus - DW APB Timers. Let's not affiliate the of-detected DW APB Timers to any CPU. By doing so the clockevent framework would prefer to select the real CPU-local timer instead of DW APB one. Otherwise if there is no other than DW APB device for clockevents tracking then it will be selected.
