[PATCH] tcb_clksrc: Use 32 bit tcb as sched_clock

Show all headers | View raw

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.
