Firstly, isn't this shown on the character LCD screen at boot, so I wonder
what the value of this is.

Secondly, with your revised patch, it could really do without adding more
non-timer stuff back into the timer initialization function when I've just
removed non-timer stuff from it.  I don't see that there's anything
particularly urgent about printing this information, so can't it be a
normal initcall?
