For a CPU to enter an idle state, there must be some timer which can trigger an IRQ to wake it back up. The local ARM architectural timer is not sufficient, because that timer stops when the CPU is powered down. Some other CPU's ARM architectural timer can be used, but this prevents that other CPU from entering an idle state. So to allow all CPUs to enter an idle state at the same time, some MMIO timer must be available that is not tied to any CPU. The basic "sun4i" timer seems most appropriate for this purpose due to its moderate rate, balancing precision and power consumption.
