TX3927 has three channel timer of which only channel 0 is used to implement a clocksource -- however, clocksource code whould also need to be changed since it's now jiffy-based and HRT doesn't tolerate this -- of course, if anybody still cared about this boards

arch/mips/philips/pnx8550/common/time.c:        mips_timer_ack = timer_ack;

Here we have a case of a vendor abusing the count/compare register and also adding 3 more of them. One pair can be used for clockevents, the other for clocksource (its compare reg. being programmed to all ones).
