On newer boards the TC can be read as single 32 bit value without locking.
Thus the clock can be used as reference for sched_clock which is much more
accurate than the jiffies implementation.
Tested on a Atmel SAMA5D2 board.

This is a rewrite of the Gemini timer
driver in arch/arm/mach-gemini/timer.c trying to do everything
the device tree way:
- Make every IO-access relative to a base address and dynamic
so we can do a dynamic ioremap and get going.
- Do not poke around directly in the global syscon registers,
access them using the syscon regmap style design pattern for
the one register we need to check.
- Find register range and interrupt from the device tree.

The current code uses the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro to fill the clksrc
table with a t-uple (name, init_function).
Unfortunately it ends up to the clockevent and the clocksource being
both initialized with this macro. It is not a problem by itself but there
is not a clear distinction between a clockevent and a clocksource in the
code initialization path. Somebody can argue there are the same IP block
and the same DT node. But conceptually from the software side, there are
two distincts entities and as is they should be initialized separetely.
Some drivers which do not have a clocksource end up by using the
CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro to declare a clockevent.
Another result is the fuzzy organization in the clocksource directory,
where the clockevents are implemented in the same file than the
clocksources or file labelled timer-something implementing a clocksource.
This patch provides another macro to specifically declare a clockevent in
the same way than the clocksource and gives the opportunity to write two
separate drivers, one for the clocksource and another for the clockevents.
Hopefully, that can help to do some housework in the directory, perhaps
split the drivers in to entities, for example:
- clksrc-rockchip.c
- clkevt-rockchip.c
Also, it gives the possibility to declare clocksources separately in the
DT and then use a clocksource from IP block while while clockevents are
used from another IP block.

It was observed that on an Intel x86 system without the ARAT (Always
running APIC timer) feature and with fairly large number of CPUs as
well as CPUs coming in and out of intel_idle frequently, the lock
contention on the tick_broadcast_lock can become significant.
To reduce contention, the lock is put into its own cacheline and all
the cpumask_var_t variables are put into the __read_mostly section.
Running the SP benchmark of the NAS Parallel Benchmarks on a 4-socket
16-core 32-thread Nehalam system, the performance number improved
from 3353.94 Mop/s to 3469.31 Mop/s when this patch was applied on
a 4.9.6 kernel. This is a 3.4% improvement.

When CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS is disabled, it is preferable to remove related
structures from struct task_struct and struct signal_struct as they
won't contain anything useful and shouldn't be relied upon by mistake.
Code still referencing those structures is also disabled here.

When a panic happens during bootup, "Rebooting in X seconds.." is
shown, but reboot happens immediatelly. It is because panic() uses mdelay()
and mdelay() calls __const_udelay() immediately, which does not
work while booting.
The per_cpu cpu_info.loops_per_jiffy value is not initialized yet, so
__const_udelay() actually multiplies the number of loops by zero. This
results in __const_udelay() to delay the execution only by a nanosecond
or so.
So check whether cpu_info.loops_per_jiffy is zero and use
loops_per_jiffy in that case. mdelay() will not be so precise without
proper calibration, but it works relatively well.
Before:
[ 0.170039] delaying 100ms
[ 0.170828] done
After
[ 0.214042] delaying 100ms
[ 0.313974] done
I do not think the added check matters given we are about to spin the
processor in the next few hundred cycles.

There seems to be some misunderstanding that udelay() and friends will
always guarantee the specified delay. This is a false understanding.
When udelay() is based on CPU cycles, it can return early for many
reasons which are detailed by Linus' reply to me in a thread in 2011:
http://lists.openwall.net/linux-kernel/2011/01/12/372
However, a udelay test module was created in 2014 which allows udelay()
to only be 0.5% fast, which is outside of the CPU-cycles udelay()
results I measured back in 2011, which were deemed to be in the "we
don't care" region.
test_udelay() should be fixed to reflect the real allowable tolerance
on udelay(), rather than 0.5%.

Before the mdev enhancement type1 iommu used capable() to test the
capability of current task; in the course of mdev development a
new requirement, testing for another task other than current, was
raised. ns_capable() was used for this purpose, however it still
tests current, the only difference is, in a specified namespace.
Fix it by using has_capability() instead, which tests the cap for
specified task in init_user_ns, the same namespace as capable().
