Still not happy about the use of arch_counter_get_cntvct
instead of using the clock subsystem. I am quite sure this could be done,
possibly through arch_sys_counter, though at this point I am getting wary
of bringing it up, so I guess I'll just let it go.
You made the same comment with my driver, and I keep asking for
clarification. The clk_get_sys() API does not work on my system,
because there are not clocks defined. That must be an ACPI limitation
that I can't fix.
The alternative to arch_counter_get_cntvct() is
arch_timer_read_counter(), which is not exported. So we have two choices,
1) Continue to use arch_counter_get_cntvct(), which works on all ARM64
platforms that this driver supports anyway
2) Export arch_timer_read_counter()
I prefer option #1.
