Hi,

OK, as the problem with 16-bit fast ticking timer looks to
be more complicated, I'd like to submit the patch for the 32-bit
ones.

Thanks

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mxs: Setup scheduler clock

Setup scheduler clock on ARM MXS platforms with a 32-bit timrot
such as MX.28. This allows the scheduler to use sub-jiffy resolution.

The corresponding change for 16-bit v1 timrots is not possible
at the moment due to rounding issues with clock values wrapping
faster than once per several seconds in the common ARM platform code.
