I wonder how to improve this patchset. May I have your some suggestion or feedback on v21? :-) Great thanks for your help! > > v20: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/1/18/534 > Reorder the first 4 patches and split the 4th patches. > Leave CNTHCTL_* as they originally were. > Fix the bug in arch_timer_select_ppi. > Split "Rework counter frequency detection" patch. > Rework the arch_timer_detect_rate function. > Improve the commit message of "Refactor MMIO timer probing". > Rebase to 4.10.0-rc4 > > v19: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/12/21/25 > Fix a '\n' missing in a error message in arch_timer_mem_init. > Add "request_mem_region" for ioremapping cntbase, according to > f947ee1 clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Map frame with of_io_request_and_map() > Rebase to 4.9.0-gfb779ff > > v18: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/12/8/446 > Fix 8/15 patch problem of "int ret;" in arch_timer_acpi_init. > Rebase to 4.9.0-rc8-g9269898 > > v17: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/25/140 > Take out some cleanups from 4/15. > Merge 5/15 and 6/15, improve PPI determination code, > improve commit message. > Rework counter frequency detection. > Move arch_timer_needs_of_probing into DT init call. > Move Platform Timer scan loop back to timer init call to avoid allocating > and free memory. > Improve all the exported functions' comment. > > v16: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/16/268 > Fix patchset problem about static enum ppi_nr of 01/13 in v15. > Refactor arch_timer_detect_rate. > Refactor arch_timer_needs_probing. > > v15: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/15/366 > Re-order patches > Add arm_arch_timer refactoring patches to prepare for GTDT: > 1. rename some enums and defines, and some cleanups > 2. separate out arch_timer_uses_ppi init code and fix a potential bug > 3.
