I propose the following change instead - please let me know what you think. - Paul From: Paul Walmsley <paul@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 00:14:08 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] OMAP2+: clockevent: late-init GPTIMER clockevent hwmod right before timer init Late-initialize the GPTIMER hwmod used for the clockevent source immediately before it is used. This avoids the need to late-initialize all of the hwmods until the boot process is further along. (In general, we want to defer as much as possible until late in the boot process.) This second version fixes a bug pointed out by Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@xxxxxx>, that would cause the kernel to use an incorrect timer hwmod name if the selected GPTIMER was not 1 or 12 - thanks Santosh. Also, Tarun Kanti DebBarma <tarun.kanti@xxxxxx> pointed out that the original patch did not apply cleanly; this has now been fixed.
