Yes, you are right.
Do you agree if I define it like this:
config ARMV7M_SYSTICK
bool "Clocksource driver for ARMv7-M System timer"
depends on OF && (CPU_V7M || COMPILE_TEST)
select CLKSRC_OF
select CLKSRC_MMIO
help
This options enables clocksource support for the ARMv7-M system
timer unit.
Thanks,
Maxime
