The declaration appears there, but the definition is hidden.

In fact, it is is hidden to prevent exactly the type of thing you're
trying to do, and to provide all access to DM timer details via the DM
timer API.

Looking at your example, I'm guessing you're trying to implement one
of my ideas for the SDRC delay calculation by passing the base address
to the assembly routine.

As I suggested in my original patch, the better way to do this would
be to extend the dmtimer API, and use C instead of assembly.
