[sp] While I take my time understanding things on devel-timer;
     I had a quick question - at risk of being flamed.

     Adding a new machine ID would trickle to u-boot and same
     uImage (default) may not work across board revisions.

     How does this scheme look like:
     - GPTIMER1 is used as default - as it works for most boards.
     - GPTIMER12 is used based on a static config option OR a
       board specific bootarg

     I know both these options aren't general practice. Still
     wanted to know your views in the current context.
