Booting this on top of a 3.4-rc4 on a i.MX6 SabreLite gives me

..
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
Switching to clocksource mxc_timer1
Clockevents: could not switch to one-shot mode:
Clockevents: could not switch to one-shot mode:
Clockevents: could not switch to one-shot mode: dummy_timer is not 
functional.
  dummy_timer is not functional.
Clockevents: could not switch to one-shot mode:
Could not switch to high resolution mode on CPU 0
  dummy_timer is not functional.
Could not switch to high resolution mode on CPU 2
Could not switch to high resolution mode on CPU 1
  dummy_timer is not functional.
Could not switch to high resolution mode on CPU 3
NET: Registered protocol family 2

I'm no expert of this, so just in case this is interesting for somebody.
