Currently the dmtimer posted mode is being enabled when the function omap_dm_timer_enable_posted() is called. This function is only being called for OMAP1 timers and OMAP2+ timers that are being used as system timers. Hence, for OMAP2+ timers that are NOT being used as a system timer, posted mode is not enabled but the "timer->posted" variable is still set (incorrectly) in the omap_dm_timer_prepare() function. This is a regression introduced by commit 3392cdd3 (ARM: OMAP: dmtimer: switch-over to platform device driver) which was before the omap_dm_timer_enable_posted() function was introduced. Although this is a regression from the original code it only impacts performance and so is not needed for stable.
